When my mom and dad were newly married, they spent the whole summer high in the mountains of New Mexico where they became friends with a wild blind blue jay that they named Oscar. My father was a strong man and powerful in his presence, a crack shot and a skilled horseman, but he was gentle in his love for little creatures like blind blue jays.

Here we have a little blue jay like Oscar sitting in a heavy sterling silver ring just waiting for the right man to come along and notice his beauty.

This vintage Zuni ring depicts a bluejay out of mosaic inlay stones like turquoise, shell and coral set against a white oval mother of pearl background.

The sterling silver setting is plain but very substantial. It's stamped on either side for a little extra bit of decoration. 

The cheerful ring and its creative use of natural materials shifts our focus, just for a moment, back to the splendor of the natural world. 

It's a size 11 1/4 with a 1 1/8" face, so it's fantastic for even a rugged dude who's secure enough to sport a little turquoise birdie.
