Zuni Pueblo Floral Style Cluster Ring [R]

Cluster rings evoke a feeling of flowers.  Generally, they are arranged with a center stone surrounded by a circle of stones.  This ring is of that style.  There are eleven perimeter turquoise cabs surrounding a center turquoise cab.  The turquoise cabs are mounted in individual bezels and attached to a flat silver backing, which is attached to the silver shank. 

This Zuni Pueblo Floral Style Cluster Ring is not signed with the name of the artisan nor is it dated, however, wear patterns of the silver edges would indicate an age of 50 or more years.
