This Zuni Pueblo ring contains ten perfectly cut pieces of turquoise, each set in tiny sawtooth bezels.  The arrangement of the turquoise cabs placed four of the cabs down the center and flanked on each side with three cabs.  Each of the cabs was then outlined with twisted silver wire rope. Silver drops were placed around the sides and ends of the ring.  The ring is not signed with the name of the artisan.


Condition: the Zuni Pueblo Ten Turquoise Petit Point Ring is in very good condition

Provenance: from the extensive vintage Southwest Indian Jewelry collection we received from a Colorado family.
