Sterling Silver and Turquoise Diné - Navajo Bracelet [SOLD]

There are several Navajo jewelers with the last name Billie documented in the literature but not one with the first name of Stewart.  Most likely, he is a relatively newcomer in the craft.

The bracelet was beautifully crafted in wide, heavy stock sterling silver.  A sky blue turquoise stone is set in the top center and flanked by two long oval designs that were executed in repoussé.  The edges of the silver were stamped in wave-like form.  The bracelet is beautiful and well crafted.

Condition: original condition

Provenance: this Sterling Silver and Turquoise Diné - Navajo Bracelet is from a family collection from Santa Fe
