Sterling silver in the form of half round and low dome wires were used to fabricate the tapered cuff shank. This material appears to have been commercially prepared, while sheet used to create the stone settings and nicely shaped terminal caps have all the marks of mill rolled ingot. The decorative rain drops were all smelted from clean fragments.
Seven hand-cut natural green to blue green turquoise stones cover the face of this bracelet like an elongated bow. The material with its golden to dark brown matrix is most likely very high grade Royston mine from Nevada. All seven stones were beautifully matched for overall hue, matrix patterning and extraordinary quality.
