Here's a very attractive, dead pawn, sterling silver & turquoise ring that we purchased from a well known pawn trader in northern Arizona, adjacent to the Navajo Reservation.
This size 8 ring features a light greenish/blue turquoise stone that is set in a handmade silver bezel and is surrounded by a silver twisted rope. The stone is mounted on a nicely carved silver base that the artist adorned with silver raindrop beads. The base is attached to a handmade, five wire, silver band.
The ring weighs 13 grams, is stamped sterling and has the artist's hallmark (JP).
Due to State Laws that regulate what information pawn traders are allowed to give out we we unable to determine the artist's name. However we told that it has made by a local Navajo artist.
