DESCRIPTION:
There is nothing at all average about this beautiful ring! This piece of Native American jewelry is Navajo overlay hand crafted by artist Calvin Peterson out of genuine sterling silver. Overlay is a process that utilizes at least two layers of sterling silver. One layer forms the foundation, while the second is used to design the individual detailed overlay. In this ring, the second layer forms a beautiful bear and water wave design for a splendid look. The ring is stamped sterling and hallmarked.
In Native American beliefs, the bear symbolizes physical strength, leadership, and is known as the "first helper".
In Native American beliefs, the water waves design represents continuous life.
