Four Zuni Nugget-Cut Turquoise Sterling Bracelets

Sterling sheet, mill rolled and smelted silver drops were used in fabrication of the four bracelets, each set with eight hand-cut natural turquoise stones.  The shank of each cuff is a sturdy strip of rolled silver ingot approximately 1/16" thick.

Bezels are hand cut of lighter weight with a file serrated edge.  Each of the total thirty two blue to blue green turquoise stones has been shaped with what seems like random grooves and roses.  Viewed at  a 3/4" angle from the top or side, each stone prsents like a little mountain or nuggest, 3/16" diameter average.

"Unknown artist" is appropriate when a work of art is unsigned and a supported opinion about who made it is not available (on Savvy Collector).. "Attributed to" precedes the name of an artist when information suggests that it likely was made by that artist (on Savvy Collector).
