About The Mouth Watering Serving Pieces !

Splendid stampwork adorns the working portion of these serving pieces as well as each handle. Stamping is deep and crisp and in every way proportional to the size of these elegant silver tools. A simple plain bezel encircles each of the oval turquoise cabochons.

Art Deco western sensibilities at their best!

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.
