The foundation of the bracelet is a silver bar with silver twisted wires on the outer edges. The three silver foundation pieces are spread at the top and soldered together at the ends. There are five beautiful blue Kingman turquoise cabs mounted on top, each in a silver bezel surrounded by fine silver twisted wire.
The twisted wires add a touch of Victorian antiquity to the appearance; however, the Silver Twisted Wire and Kingman Turquoise Bracelet is relatively new. It is stamped with the initials JL but we do not know the artist associated with those initials.
Condition: original condition
Provenance: from the collection of a family from Santa Fe
