Love the most excellent natural turquoise on this early ingot cuff. So yummy. Very interesting construction. On top is a silver plate with the 5 turquoise stones and handmade bezels. That is mounted on a wide silver shank with worn wire decoration. Both parts are clearly early and ingot. My curious mind wonders if the top was a bracelet whose narrow shank broke and this was a way of recycling it into a wearable piece. Or was the whole thing made at one time by the same artisan? Guess we'll never know.
There appears to be a small crack on one stone, please notice. Older pieces like this often have some damage or repairs due to their history.
Nice vintage patina. Quality silver weight well worn feel.
The bracelet measures 5 1/4" inside with a 1 1/4" gap, and weighs a 37 grams. It is 3/4" wide.
Unmarked like many oldies and tested ingot.
The face measures 3/4" tall.
