The spectacular depth and variation in color of the turquoise cabochon in this bracelet are what sets this apart from other turquoise bracelets. The large stone rests in an elegant-lace like frame atop a shank consisting of two stamped silver bands on either side of a piece of twisted wire. Two chiseled triangle shapes rest at the top of the bracelet on either side of the stone. The bracelet was made in the 1940s and is not signed.
Condition: The bracelet with large multi-hued green stone is in very good condition for its age. There are small scratches on the stone, but no cracks. The silver has an amazing patina.
Provenance: The bracelet comes from a large Southwest Indian Jewelry collection in Colorado
