About The Dusk Blue Lone Mountain Turquoise Ring

Fabricated entirely from ingot material, this handsome silver ring is confident with reason! This killer stone is bordered with a smooth silver bezel, further outlined by twisted silver wire. Flanking the ring's face on either side is a silver panel hosting 6 tapering diagonal impressed lines.

This treasure combines superior workmanship with clean, well-balanced design featuring turquoise from one of the most desirable mines.

About Navajo

The Navajo were the first of the Native Americans of the Southwest to learn silversmithing from the Spanish. Most Navajo jewelry emphasizes silver, with turquoise stones used as an accent. Some pieces are cast in sand or tufa molds, while others are hammered, using a male stamp and a female die.
