Wilbert Manning Yei Ring

Navajo jeweler Wilbert Manning has a unique style of inlay jewelry that might be mistaken as Zuni made. Notice, though, the thicker silver band on this ring that's adorned with file work and a center Yei face. Those are usually Navajo design elements.

Wilbert Manning hand cuts each diminutive stone. The little stones framing the sides of the mosaic inlay Yei are even beveled. There's turquoise, lapis, coral, jet and even a tiny bit of opal.

This dynamite ring is a size 11. It's signed on the inside.
