This gorgeous Sterling Silver bracelet was handmade by a talented Navajo silversmith during the 1960s! It features a tapered cuff with a wide, flat central design with row-style stones and granulated beads. The central stone is a pretty sky blue turquoise, bracketed by two vertically stacked granulated beads.

Outside of the dual beads are Native American Red Coral stones, which are a deep brick red in color. The design is rounded off with a granulated bead on each side, neatly framing the stones and subtly echoing the taper of the cuff. The cuff features a slightly oblong shape for a more natural fit on the wrist. This listing is for the item only. This beautiful piece was made by a very talented Native American silversmith.

It features hand crafted silversmith work throughout. Antique Native American jewelry is very rare to find. This is due to these pieces being made for reservation and personal use before the tourist trade became popular. Very few pieces were made and even less survived to today.
