Navajo
Southwest
1930s
Sterling silver and turquoise
Total circumference 8 in (20.3 cm), gap 1 1/4 in (3.2 cm), width 1 1/4 in (3.2 cm); 57.2 grams
Provenance: Private collection, Honolulu, HI
This Navajo cuff sets three large oval turquoise stones across the front, all green with heavy brown and gold matrix that runs differently through each stone. Each sits in a twisted rope bezel, separated and framed by stamped silver rosette buttons and round beads that pack the field around the settings. The stones are broad and closely matched in tone, giving the front of the cuff a solid band of turquoise.
The shoulders are stamped with radiating fan motifs, and the shanks are worked as twisted wire that carries the rope theme around the band. At just over 57 grams across a 1 1/4 inch width, the cuff has real breadth and weight on the wrist. The 8 inch circumference with a 1 1/4 inch gap suits a medium to larger wrist and adjusts through the open back.
