Beautiful Green Turquoise Ring; Need Help in Identifying Artist/Signature

Good Morning Turquoise Lovers,
New member here. I’m looking for assistance in identifying this artist and signature. I looked through a couple websites already, and I couldn’t find a photographic match on any of them. The first cursive letter in the initials signature is either a T or an J. Thanks :slight_smile:

SIGNED: JS, attributed to James Shay (Navajo), this looks old school compared to yours although interesting how similar in design.

Beautiful ring you shared. Thank you.

You might check with Sunwest Silver in Albuquerque. Ernie Montoya owns the Carico Lake mine and this might be an artist he uses.

Is Carico Lake still producing?

I believe so, that is Ernie Montoya’s mine. He owns Sunwest Silver in Albuquerque and would most likely let you know with an email or phone call.
