This feminine sterling silver cuff bracelet is graceful and simple.
The natural Fox Mine turquoise cabochan is oval and high domed with deep blue green color and darker swirls of the same hue. The stone is framed on either side by heavy gauge silver leaves, which are detailed with stamp work, then cut and sculpted with a file to produce an attractive edge.
5 1/4" length from end to end with a 1 1/16" opening. Height is 13/16" at center tapering to 1/4" at each end. The turquoise stone is 3/4" height X 5/8" width, at the highest point it rises 1/8" above its bezel.
