DESCRIPTION:
Looking at such beauty tells the capabilities of Native American art! This piece of Native American jewelry is Navajo hand crafted by artist Clem Nalwood, out of genuine sterling silver and man made Blue Opals. A total of THREE stones are placed in hand cut bezel settings while being accented with mini stamped beads and hand crafted silver work for a magnificent finish. The bracelet is stamped sterling, Navajo, and is hallmarked.
Most people know Opal for its distinctive play of color, it is a semi-transparent solidified mineral composed of silicon and water, and it gets its name from the Latin word "Oplus" meaning precious stone. Opal is the birthstone for October. It is believed to release self-consciousness allowing spontaneous action, and awakens psychic and mystical qualities.
