This dead pawn bracelet is one of the most unique pieces we've seen. The bracelet, crafted from thick, heavy silver, features a very large piece of vivid blue turquoise that contains both dark matrix and flecks of iron pyrite, better known as fools' gold. The stone is quite tall, measuring 3/8 of an inch from the top of the cuff. The bezel in which the stone is set is hand cut, and the stone is mounted on a very interesting looking cuff. The cuff is, as previously mentioned, very thick and inflexible silver (here's where I give you my reminder to please measure your wrist before making your purchase as no size adjustment would be possible) and features applied silver pieces that give the impression of a mosaic of silver.

The bracelet measures 5 1/8 of an inch plus a 1 1/4 of an inch gap and tapers down from 1 inch at its wide end to 13/16 of an inch at the smaller end. On our postal scale, this cuff weighed in at 92 grams. The back of the bracelet is stamped sterling and features an artist's hallmark, although we were not able to read or identify it. Have a look at the pictures of this very interesting piece!
