:
Up for your perusal is this fabulous find. This is a vintage Navajo Ervin Tsosie inlaid cuff bracelet. This sterling cuff features Tsosie's famous contemporary hand-cut and hand-inlay technique done in turquoise and orange spiny oyster on black. This is a combination of stone and shell hand cut inlay. Ervin Tsosie (1970-) is known for his eye catching and modern design technique using intricate inlay work. He is an award winning smith, who started making jewelry in the 1980s. He is extremely well respected and consider a master. He is referenced in the following books: "Native American and Southwestern Silver Hallmarks" by Hougart and "Hallmarks of the Southwest" by Wrights. Signed on the interior: "E Sterling T". Exact age is unknown, but prior owner purchased this roughly 20-25 years ago. Purchased from a high end gallery. From a collector who purchased high end, high style Native American and artisan jewelry. Please contact me with any questions. Thanks, Ryan.
Size:
This is a fixed size. It cannot be adjusted or bent as it would damage the inlay work. Opening measures about 1". Bracelet width is about 1". This would fit a smaller to smaller-medium ladies wrist.
A nice addition to your vintage Navajo Ervin Tsosie jewelry collection.
