Vintage Navajo Ring With Greenish Turquoise Stone

About the Piece: Vintage Navajo ring with greenish turquoise stone set in silver.

Not everything offered at Turquoise & Tufa is hundreds of dollars. Occasionally, I'll find lovely pieces that are still at a more affordable price point. Enter this vintage Navajo ring.

It comes from a fine collection of Native American jewelry, but rather than many hundreds of dollars like the rest of the pieces in the collection, it's under a hundred. 

The ring is set with a single turquoise stone, blue green in color. The silver work is pretty. The stone is set in a very simple bezel, but two layers of silver surround it. One is a layer of twisted wire and outside that is silver stamped with circles. A size 4 1/2, the ring makes a big impact on small fingers. The face measures 1 1/8" and the ring is unsigned.
