AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Impressive Vintage Navajo Style Ring - 925 Sterling Silver & Large Turquoise "Spiderweb" - 19.18 g
Stunning vintage ring in Native American (Navajo) style, crafted from solid silver and set with a remarkably large turquoise. This piece is distinguished by its traditional craftsmanship and the striking presence of the central stone.
Turquoise
The ring features a large oval cabochon of natural turquoise (likely stabilized for durability). The stone displays a beautiful, saturated sky-blue hue, characteristic of North American turquoise. It is traversed by a matrix (veining) of ochre, light brown, and cream hues, forming a partial spiderweb pattern that adds depth and character to the gem. The stone's surface is smooth and lustrous.
Frame and Design
The setting is crafted from 925 sterling silver. The stone is mounted in a bezel setting with an open back, revealing the raw back of the gem. It is surrounded by a decorative frieze of silver beads (often called "raindrops" in Navajo culture), creating a striking contrast with the blue. The ring's shank is solid and splits into two branches at the junction with the setting, ensuring good balance on the finger despite the size of the piece.
Technical specifications
Material: Solid Silver (hallmark "925" visible inside the ring).
Total weight: 19.18 grams.
Dimensions of the plate (ring head): 4.5 cm x 2.5 cm.

Ring size

Inner diameter: 18.1 mm
USA / Canada: 8
United Kingdom (UK): P 1/2

Condition of preservation
Very good overall condition. The piece of jewelry has a natural patina and minor scratches on the silver, consistent with its age and wear, which attest to its authenticity. The stone is intact, with no apparent cracks.
Careful shipment, the postal service.
