6.5" Bev Etsate Zuni inlaid plaque in Navajo heavy stamped silver cuff bracelet. The silver work on this cuff is way better than any Bev Etsate cuffs I've seen. It's signed on the back illegibly, very nice silverwork. Likely a collaboration.<br><br>Beverly Etsate is an acclaimed Zuni Inlay artist. Bev is the daughter of revered Zuni artists Rosalie and Augustine Pinto. Bev continues her parents’ tradition of inlaid jewelry by producing jewelry in the same style as her elders. As she had learned from her parents she has been a teacher to her two sons Carl Etsate a fetish carver and Todd Etsate as well as her daughter Tracy Bowekaty, a jewelry maker who is also following in her mother’s and grandparents’ paths.<br><br>She has over 40 years of experience in her craft. Over that time, she has become one of Zuni's foremost jewelers.<br><br>Her work ranges through all the traditional techniques of Zuni: mosaic inlay, raised inlay, animated, pictorial inlay, and also needlepoint.

A great sense of humor is evident in many of her holiday pieces.<br><br> Marked or unmarked as shown in pics, weight and other measurements in pics.
