Sterling silver and turquoise
Diameter 1 5/8 in (4.1 cm); 13.49 g
Provenance: Private collection, Las Cruces, New Mexico
A round openwork pin ringed by slender turquoise stones set point outward, each in a serrated bezel tipped with a small silver bead so the outer edge reads as a radiating sunburst. A twisted silver rope forms an inner circle enclosing a central turquoise blossom, its petals cut to the same slender profile. The turquoise is an even blue with light matrix, and the silver carries a darkened patina in the recesses consistent with age.
