Zuni Sterling Silver and Petit Point Turquoise Ring [SOLD]

This very petite ring has an oval silver foundation on which the lapidary artist placed 16 very small turquoise cabs surrounding 3 smaller ones. Each cab is about ⅛" long. It's amazing that an artist could work on such a small scale.

Each of the cabs is set securely in a silver bezel, and there is a silver drop between each of the 16 cabs. A twisted silver wire rope encircles the center cabs. The artist placed 4 dark green cabs amongst the 12 blue ones. The ring is scale in size and delicate in appeal.
