Although the bracelet is unsigned, its craftsmanship, construction, materials, and overall design are highly consistent with traditional Native American silverwork of the American Southwest.

Five beautifully matched Green Kingman Turquoise cabochons are individually bezel-set into substantial sterling silver links, creating a bold statement piece that celebrates the timeless beauty of natural American turquoise. Long prized for its vibrant green hues and distinctive natural matrix, Kingman Turquoise has been one of the most iconic gemstones used in Southwestern jewelry for generations.

While no maker's marks or tribal hallmarks are present, this bracelet exhibits many of the characteristics traditionally associated with Native American craftsmanship. Based on its design, materials, construction techniques, and overall aesthetic, we believe it to be an authentic Native American piece, although it is offered as attributed rather than definitively documented.

The bracelet is fitted with a sterling silver toggle clasp and can be adjusted using either of the two O-rings for a comfortable fit.

Measurements:
Length: Adjustable from 8 inches (20 cm) to 9 inches (23 cm)
Width: 1.32 inches (2.5 cm)
Weight: 64 grams (2.25 oz)

Provenance:
Acquired in northern Mississippi from a regional antiques dealer specializing in Southwestern and Native American jewelry. The bracelet has remained in a private collection since its acquisition.

Its substantial weight, exceptional natural turquoise, and classic design make it both a wearable work of art and a distinguished addition to any collection. See less
