Navajo Bracelet, c. 1950

Description

This exceptional Antique Navajo bracelet, c. 1930, features three beautifully matched oval turquoise cabochons set in hand-worked sterling silver. The stones display a rich sky-blue hue with natural black matrix, characteristic of early high-grade turquoise favored by Navajo silversmiths of the period. Each cabochon is framed by finely stamped leaf motifs, applied raindrops, and twisted wire, while the split-shank cuff construction reflects the refined craftsmanship and emerging sophistication of early 20th-century Navajo jewelry. Balanced in form and bold in presence, this bracelet is a classic example of Navajo design during a pivotal era of American Southwest silverwork and remains a timeless, highly collectible piece.


This bracelet measures 5 ¾” with a 1 ½” gap, fitting a 7 ¼” wrist. The max width of 1 ¾”.
