Description
High content silver ingot was used to create every feature of this piece. The cuff itself was hammer stretched, then mill rolled (using a hand crank mill). The shape was saw cut, filed and decorative stamping was struck into the silver. The front half of the shank was then marked and cut with a chisel. This moved the silver causing the arrow stamps to appear as if each was the mark of a different implement.

About The Silver Cuff Bracelet with 3 Natural Turquoise Oval Cabs

This handsome cuff has been worn well.  It has all the depth and character one could hope for in a piece at least 70 to 80 years of age.  

The three hand-cut natural turquoise stones are of highest quality--comparing with Indian Mountain, Red Mountain and Lone Mountain highest grades.  The color and intensity of these cabochons will make you forget to blink.  

This bracelet is a rare treasure for some lucky person with a 6" wrist.  With a slight adjustment it could accomodate a 6 1/4" wrist.
