Agate stones have a way of mimicking the landscape of the Navajo Homeland in a way that is impossible for humans to imitate. The stone in this finely made ring looks like the landscape of the area just east of Tuba City in Arizona at sunset or a small modernist painting of the southwestern landscape. The subtle ripples in the color of the stone resemble the layered strata of stone in the cliffs.
It is set in a sterling bezel with small silver drops framing it. The piece is unsigned and dates to the mid 20th century.
