This classic bangle bracelet was handcrafted by Zuni artist Ricky Booqua with care and precision.
Featuring blue turquoise gemstones, the sterling silver bracelet showcases the traditional Native American jewelry-making style of channel inlay, in which artists set precisely cut gemstones into pre-formed silver channels. The technique allows artists to use colorful combinations of gemstones in complex and creative patterns. Channel inlay requires masterful silversmithing and lapidary skills, and is utilized by Native American jewelers to create magnificent jewelry pieces recognized for their craftsmanship and beauty as art.
Bracelet measures 2-5/8" diameter and 3/8" wide, and comes with a certificate of authenticity.
