A coin silver bracelet by Perry Shorty, who makes Navajo jewelry devoted to classic designs from before the 1940s. American silver coins from the 1910s and 1920s are melted and tufa-cast into silver ingots, from which heavy-gauge half-round wire is carved by hand. Careful stampwork is applied on four faces (top, sides and back), and a high-grade Blue Gem turquoise is set, making this a piece that only Perry Shorty could make. Material: Coin silver Stone: Blue Gem turquoise Dimensions: Inside circumference 14.6 cm; width 1 cm; opening 2.8 cm; thickness 0.4 cm Artist: Perry Shorty (Navajo)
