Turquoise Ring sz 10
This ring was Hand Crafted by Navajo Artist Al Charley. He works in the traditional Navajo style. It's a size 10 to 10 1/4. It has a fabulous Natural Turquoise Mountain turquoise stone that is a wonderful blue with a light to dark gold matrix. The stone sets in a smooth bezel and is surrounded by twisted silver roping. It has a thick, really sturdy split shank band with stamp work designs. This ring feels good to hold, I can't explain it.
I took a lot of pictures of this piece below. Please forgive my very old hand (but note my neat tattoo) I wanted you to get an idea of how great it looks on.
It's marked sterling and Hallmarked. It measures 1 3/8" tall by 7/8" at it's widest point.
Weight: 17.6 grams on my scale I placed a quarter there for scale.
