Bola Tie Set with 4 Turquoise Nuggets & Red Branch Coral
Isabelle Simplicio
- About The Bola Tie Set with 4 Turquoise Nuggets & Red Branch Coral
Sterling silver mill-rolled sheet and drawn wire were used to fabricate this large, handsome bolo tie with hand-cut and stamped foliage.
A stamp decorated border and background as well as decorative hand-cut serrated bezels add to the highly ornamental settings for four natural blue nugget turquoise stones and three natural deep red branch coral speciments. The largest branch is set in the tie in three pieces. Two dangle, one each, from the tips.
Black leather braid completes the ensemble.
This bolo tie is definitely "over the top fancy". Nothing was held back in either concept or execution.
