Thisis a STRIKING piece...
It has an absolutely unique design, with a very creative approach and a turquoiseembedded in thethick sterling silver.
It is so specialit is hard to describe,
It is all in curves, ups and downs, shady places.
The cuff is asymmetricalwith areal thick base.The frontpart is like carved deeply with thick elements appearing in relief, 3D. On one side of the cuff, it could be 2 elongated horns following the wrist curve.They meet by a vertical bent carved leaf. This superb thick leaf follows the line of the turquoise, a protection for the treasure.
Because the turquoise truly looks like a natural treasure coming from the deepest abyss of the sterling silver. The intense stonemakes one with the sterling silver. They are one element fully alive, with the power of the wild. The turquoise is as strong as the sterling work, intense vivid dark blue. It is 1 3/4\" long. It has the appearance of a Morenciand itis probablyaMorenci.
The stone and its gorgeous setting is close to 0.5\" high. There is a twisted rope at the base, then like a band around the stone, another twisted rope around the stone and finally the traditional bezel appears. Truly spectacular. Please, note that due tothe bracelet\'s ageTHE SAW TEETH BEZEL HAS SOME TINY PARTS MISSING.It does not place the turquoise in dangerand is barely visible.
The other side of the cuff has some protuberant elements appearing from the depth... a leaf, a rope, a hand stamped cone which might be a tipi...
The edges of the bracelet are chiseled in some places. The sterling silver has a very nice original patina, noticeable but not overwhelming.
It is a RARE piece
The cuff is 5.5\" inside + 1\" gap. IT IS NOT ADJUSTABLE AT ALL because of the extra thick sterling silver.
The widest part of the cuff is 2 1/4\" in the front.
