- About The King's Manassa Turquoise Cuff Bracelet
Large silver cuff made of draw plate wire upon which is an enormous smooth bezel mounted King's Manassa's turquoise stone.
It is evenly marbled with a golden matrix. Rare turquoise from a "dead" Colorado mine matched with four crenelated buttons soldered vertically on either side of the stone, just after a twisted rope of sterling silver. The two round wires and three flat wires that comprise the base of the bracelet are each punctuated with a silver ball, one of which is missing on one side.
