EBay auction bargains still happen…$125…one of those you snag to tell a story later…as promised I am posting the best pictures of it trying to identify the turquoise…the stone looked greener and out focus in the EBay pictures…HHB was know to pick the best natural gem quality stones for these ingot rings…after receiving it I did these pictures with flash…much more blue with brown matrix and I believe some white quartz. Whadda you all think? I would love to hear your best guesses.
Webbed Kingman would be my guess. And I’ve seen a lot of wonderful artists use amazing natural Kingman stones. It is beautiful. Is the band thick? I love thick bands on rings.
Yes, award winning Navajo jeweler, Harry H. Begay, features in this ring a hand chiseled bezel encircled with twist wire. Droplets and deeply hand stamped overlay patterns sit on a rolled and hammered shank unique to the jeweler. The piece is made completely from scratch from labor intensive ingot sterling silver. The design is signature to Harry, with heavy fluted ends that sit perfectly on the finger.
