Zuni jewelers are trained lapidary artisans who excel in cutting and setting small stones, sometimes in a mosaic pattern and other times in channel inlay form. This sterling silver ring has turquoise stones set in channel inlay in stone-to-stone fashion. The edges of the silver ring are stamped with feather-like designs. The ring dates to circa 1980s and the turquoise has darkened to a rich patina from age.
