Outstanding Vintage Native American Signed Sterling Turquoise Ring
This beautiful ring features a large cabochon of sky-blue turquoise subtly marbled with honey-colored matrix. The setting is handcrafted with a fine rope-like border around the bezel and a bold ring of beading framing it all. Even the bezel itself is incised with a repeating pattern. The band of the ring is constructed in 3 pieces, with a flat band of silver on each side of a twisted silver rope. The ring is marked STERLING and with partially obscured initials that appear to say BK or RK. There is an additional incised mark above the initials. This ring displays expert craftsmanship.
Front measures 7/8 x 1 inch in diameter. Turquoise cabochon measures 15 x 17 mm. and rises 10 mm. proud. Ring size is 6.
Excellent vintage condition. Normal patina of vintage silver has been left undisturbed.
