A coin silver bracelet by Perry Shorty, whose Navajo jewelry is devoted to classic designs from before the 1940s. American silver coins from the 1910s and 1920s are melted and tufa-cast into an ingot, then shaped using only a hammer and file. Although the design is thoroughly classic, stampwork on all four surfaces makes this an intricately worked piece. Material: Coin silver Dimensions: Inside circumference 14.3 cm; width 0.9 cm; opening 2.7 cm; thickness 0.4 cm Artist: Perry Shorty (Navajo)
