DESCRIPTION:
Looking at such beauty tells the capabilities of Native American art! This piece of Native American jewelry is Navajo hand crafted by artist Darrell Morgan, out of genuine sterling silver and real Turquoise stones. The stone is carefully placed in a hand cut bezel, while hand cut silver work creates a detailed wolf. A total of THREE stones are gently set in hand cut bezel settings, while stunning silver work creates fabulous leaf designs. Mini swirls and beads, stamped patterns complete the bracelet for a perfect finish. The cuff is stamped sterling and hallmarked.
Turquoise is the birthstone of December. It is believed that turquoise tends to bring good fortune, strength and helps overcome illness. Turquoise got its name from the Levantine traders called Turks who brought the stone to Europe from Persia via Turkey centuries ago. Native Americans have prized turquoise since the time of the Aztecs, who mined it in New Mexico. The natural variations that occur in turquoise are part of its appeal and beauty.
