Magnificent with precious stone and metals, this spectacular one of a kind piece was hand made by award winning Navajo silver and goldsmith, Sammie Kescoli Begay. The natural turquoise of the ring is from the famous Indian Mountain mine in Nevada. This mine is no longer producing.

The exquisite hand chiseled bezel, the hand braided wire and the outer layer of petite droplets are all solid 18K gold. Exceptional detail is also displayed on the band of the ring, made from labor intensive hand rolled and hammered ingot sterling silver. This piece is museum quality and would make an excellent addition to any collection.
