BA1605 Turquoise and silver Harpo ring

One of a Kind piece

Beautiful Navajo sterling silver diamond-shaped ring, inlaid with a gradation of turquoise colors Sleeping Beauty (Arizona).  

Inlay is a Native American jewelry-making process in which real stones (most often turquoise, coral, mother-of-pearl and jet) are cut and assembled by hand to create a geometric pattern. The whole is polished to a smooth, elegant finish. 

Inlay is a Zuni jewelry process, but here it is masterfully executed by a Navajo silversmith. This ring is a fine example of “channel inlay”, an inlay technique in which the stones are compartmentalized by thin silver bars.

Inlay dimensions : 12mm (0.1/2 inch)
This ring is in sterling silver.

Proudly Navajo handmade in the USA.
