These gorgeous pieces were made by the Artisans of Navajo Nation in late 1960s - the photographer who shot story for LIFE Magazine originally purchased these pieces. There are 46 turquoise stones in a serrated bezel setting in bracelet - the colors match rather well and are a deep blue turquoise heavy on the matrix. The ring is a size 8.5 and has 18 stones - again stones match well and are a deeper blue with a whiff on green.

There are no artists marks or SS marks but my appraiser says silver and stones are authentic. In very good condition with very little wear to silver and stones appear in excellent condition. Some of the stones have a good amount of matrix which can look like a defect or crack but is the natural state of the stone and which I find makes the pieces even more beautiful but not eveyone has the same taste. There does not appear to be any loose stones.

Both pieces rated vintage very good/good for some wear to stones and settings but craftsmanship is top notch.

So in style right now. I keep seeing this type of bracelet made in plastic or same design but lacking the superior workmanship that went into creating this bracelet and ring. Truly a stunning set!
