The foundation of this bracelet is made from a pair of triangular-shaped silver bars, spaced apart, connected at the ends, and stamped with traditional images. At the top center of the bracelet are five oval shaped natural turquoise cabs, varying from blue to slightly green in color. Each cab is set in a handmade silver bezel. The five settings are separated by pairs of silver dots.
This Double Bar Silver and Five Turquoise Cabs Bracelet is inscribed with the name J. Chee, but I have not located an artisan with that name, presented in that arrangement, in any of the published references.
Condition: very good condition with a minor crack in the blue cab.
Provenance: from the collection of a family from Santa Fe
