Geraldine Paquine GP Zuni Sterling Silver Blue Turquoise Ring Petit Point Sz 8

This is a beautiful vintage Zuni Native American sterling silver ring featuring exceptional petit point turquoise craftsmanship by Geraldine Paquine. The piece showcases six vibrant robin's egg blue teardrop-shaped turquoise stones arranged in an elegant flower design, each stone meticulously set in traditional rope-bezel sterling silver settings with intricate twisted wire detailing. The center features a silver bead accent completing the floral motif. The ring is authentically hallmarked on the reverse with "GP STERLING ZUNI" -confirming this is genuine work by Zuni artisan Geraldine Paquine. The quality of workmanship, authentic Zuni petit point style, and traditional techniques unmistakably confirm this is genuine Zuni artistry from the Pueblo of Zuni. The turquoise displays excellent robin's egg blue color and clarity with beautiful natural variations. The piece shows normal vintage wear including some tarnish in recessed areas that adds authentic character and could be polished if desired. This represents fine traditional Zuni silversmithing and would make an excellent addition to any Native American jewelry collection. 4.8 grams Size 8 21mm top Signed GP Sterling Zuni
