Here's another beautiful Royston Ribbon turquoise & sterling silver ring that was made for us by Alex Sanchez.
Alex made this ring to feature it's stunning Royston Ribbon turquoise stone which he set in a silver bezel and surrounded with a thick, handmade, silver twisted rope. He mounted the stone on a very attractive band that he adorned with hand stamped symbols and applied, silver, repousse applications.
This size 7+1/4 ring weighs 27 grams and it measures 1+1/2" long. The inside of the band is stamped sterling and has Alex's hallmark.
NOTE: The coin in the second picture is a quarter dollar.
Alex is one of today's most collectible Navajo jewelry artists and his art is very often on display at the Heard Museum in Phoenix, Arizona. The Heard is considered the "Smithsonian" of Native American jewelry.
