Navajo-style ring crafted in 925 sterling silver, dating from the 1980s or 1990s. The piece features a natural turquoise cabochon in shades of blue-green with dark veining. The oval setting is framed by a braided silver wire and a leaf carved in relief, a technique reminiscent of Native American jewelry of the period. These types of rings reflect the organic design characteristic of Navajo art, where nature is represented through leaves, feathers, and local stones. Turquoise, a symbolic stone, was used as a protective amulet and was associated with health and spiritual balance.
This piece is suitable for both specialized collections and for wearing with contemporary styles that incorporate ethnic elements or natural materials. A truly original gift.
