An unknown Diné silversmith focused on the unique elegance of three small round turquoise cabochons to create this mid-century ring. Aligned in a vertical row, three stones are set in handmade bezels within a shadow box frame that has a line of small silver dots on either side.

The handiwork on this ring was skillful.  The top was attached to a shank that is split into three parts at the top. The ring has a beautiful patina that comes from loving wear over time.


Condition: The Navajo Three Stone Turquoise and Silver Ring is in very good condition with wear and patina consistent with its age.

Provenance: The ring comes from the Southwest Indian Jewelry collection of a Colorado family
