The ring is a wonderful example of the silverwork by Navajo smiths in the 1940s and 1950s. In traditional Navajo fashion, the smith has highlighted the beauty of the stone with a balanced sterling silver frame.
The focus is on the beauty of the stone. This rectangular domed turquoise ring is surrounded by a twisted silver rope and mounted on a scalloped-edge backing, all of which is mounted on a split shank silver band.
