Vintage Jerry Quintana Ring With Large Turquoise Stone

Joe H. Quintana is probably the best known silversmith from Cochiti Pueblo, but another jeweler with the last name Quintana created pieces that are just as impressive.

This large turquoise ring was handmade by Jerry Quintana of Cochiti Pueblo. Just look at the natural turquoise stone he chose! It's eye-catching and exceptional with shades of green.

Jerry Quintana lived from 1915-1995, and gifted us with some gorgeous works of Pueblo jewelry during his lifetime.

This one is a size 7, and the face measures 1 5/8" tall x 1 1/8" wide. The lovely stone is hand shaped and rises above the setting. It's signed on the reverse.
