Navajo Sally Yazzie Signed Multi-Stone Inlay Sterling Silver Cuff Bracelet

This is a RARE museum quality, hand crafted Navajo sterling silver and multi-stone inlay cuff bracelet signed by Sally Yazzie. The wide cuff is faceted in shape with intricate inlay in mother-of-pearl, opal, malachite, turquoise, lapis lazuli, coral, enamel and synthetic stones to create various designs. The bracelet is unique with stone inlay at the side of the cuff as well. This inside has an intricate stamped design along with the SY (Sally Yazzie) signature. From the August/September 2015 issue of Cowboys & Indians Today the Navajo still inhabit this land, a swath of sun-scorched desert stretching from northeastern Arizona to patches of New Mexico, Utah, and Colorado. But tucked away in the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of the American Indian – New York, a similarly sparkling, albeit smaller-scale, sphere exists: a retrospective dedicated to the Yazzies, a close-knit group of Navajo kin who are recognized by collectors and curators alike as one of the Southwest’s preeminent jewelry-making families.
