Navajo Handmade Ornate Sand Cast Solid 925 Sterling Silver Ring
Sand cast items are Indian Hand Made items using a procedure developed by the Navajo silversmiths in the mid 1800s. It is a labor-intensive process that involves many steps.Using Tufa Stone, a porous rock from volcanic ash, or Sandstone, a harder stone, the artist carves the design of the item being cast. Another flat stone is placed against the carved half of the mold. The halves are fastened together and a sprue hole is carved into one end. Molten silver is poured into the mold using the sprue hole. Once the silver cools, the item is taken out and finished. Bracelets are poured flat and then shaped.Due to the porous nature of Tufa or Sand Stone, sand cast items will have character marks and imperfections such as small pits, which is the nature of Sand Casting.
