This elegant Diné of the Navajo Nation ring has an orbit of coral surrounding a single turquoise gemstone. The contrast one might expect is actually very complimentary. There are two large oval coral and six smaller round and domed ones. The turquoise in the center has a beautiful spider web matrix.


Condition: very good condition. Small perforations in the coral are naturally occurring.

Provenance: this Navajo Silver, Turquoise and Coral Ring is from a private collection
