Southwestern silver lace agate Cuff Bracelet
Breathtakingly beautiful this vintage sterling silver cuff bracelet, Navajo or Southwestern based on the style, is one of those pieces that become heirlooms. Exceptionally well crafted, it is centered by a huge oval lace agate, the color of the stone showing at times powdery blue, at times light grey. Set in a fine saw-tooth bezel, the agate is surrounded by beading and beautiful, richly layered foliate and floral overlay. This is a signed piece, as you can see in the last photo, but I have not been able to identify the maker. Whoever that silversmith is, kudos for a job superbly done…
Size / Weight: 6 1/4” inner circumference (including the 1” gap); 2 5/16” wide at center front; 83.1 grams
Hallmarks / Date: maker’s initials “WL” conjoined as shown as well as “STERLING”; post-1970
Condition: excellent vintage, exhibiting a high level of craftsmanship, having impeccable finishing, a stunning stone and wonderful patina, with no damage nor any repairs noted
