Hammer stretched and rolled ingot silver, the use of a chisel and five hand-carved stamps were used in the creation of this handsome statement cuff.
From the centerpiece deep green "pillow cut" turquoise, the shank of this sturdy bracelet is thoroughly decorated to each terminal. Within the ribbon of deeply stamped decoration are four marquise within diamond repousse forms, two on each side. These are modified "Medicine Man's Eyes".
