This beautifully executed bracelet is stamped with the initials L L, however we have not yet associated these initials with a Zuni artisan.This beautifully executed bracelet is stamped with the initials L L, however we have not yet associated these initials with a Zuni artisan. The workmanship is excellent in both silversmithing and lapidary. The turquoise are beautifully matched in color and were inserted between silver channels in a tight fit. The silver is not decorated except for the edges which have "sunrise" designs stamped from end to end. The bracelet probably dates to the late twentieth century.
