Vintage Navajo Coral Ring in Contemporary Setting By Robert Begay

Natural coral is such a powerful stone that you don't need a lot for a piece of jewelry to really stand out.

Such is the case with this vintage natural red coral ring in a contemporary silver shadowbox setting. It's a handmade Navajo piece Robert Begay.

The ring is not large, but it has plenty of presence with its deep red color highlighted by silver file work. It also feels really good on the hand.

The ring is a size 6 1/4 and the face measures 7/8". Signed R. Begay on the reverse which is Robert Begay's earlier hallmark.

From a Seattle Collection of fine Native American art acquired during several of Martha Struever's famous Native American art travel seminars.
