On offer is an authentic, large handsome vintage NAVAJO hand wrought. 925 sterling silver ring adorned with a natural hand-cut and polished rectangle shaped Petrified Agatized Wood stone, silver rope and raindrops. In natural light the stone appears as a tortoise brown color until it catches sunlight, then it shows some burnt orange and gray accents.

The ring is not hallmarked which was quite common in early NATIVE AMERICAN silver prior to the 1970's. We believe this ring was created circa 1950 or perhaps earlier. This ring was skillfully crafted with attention to detail in the NAVAJO tradition and is in very good vintage condition (please see ALL photos for an accurate detailed depiction). The natural hand-cut and polished rectangle shaped flat cabochon stone is in very good condition with no chips or cracks.

Any white marks or spots are lighting reflections. It is firmly and securely set in a smooth silver bezel. 7/8" long x 9/16" wide. Overall, the ring plaque measures approx. 1" long x 3/4" wide; the triple split band shank is approx. 3/8" tapering to 1/8+" wide. This NAVAJO ring will fit approx. Size 11.5 It weighs 12.5 grams. This handsome, classic vintage NAVAJO. 925 sterling silver and southwest Petrified Wood stone crafted by a skilled artisan would make an fine addition to any Twentieth Century Native American Silver and Stone Jewelry, Petrified Wood or Historic Cultural Arts and Crafts collection. We have been involved in the design and creation of contemporary jewelry at the undergraduate and post graduate level since 1967. In 1975 we opened a gallery of hand wrought fine art contemporary jewels and have since handled thousands of unique, one of a kind and limited edition pieces crafted predominantly by American artisans with a special emphasis on Native American Art.

Will be determined upon request. We believe our photos and description to be an accurate testament. Thus, ALL SALES ARE FINAL.

Thanks for looking and good luck.
