Wayne Muskett - Calvin Begay Canyon collection Sterling Multi-stone inlay cuff bracelet<br><br>Marked or unmarked as shown in pics, weight and other measurements in pics. Sorry but my jewelry is stored in a secure location and cannot be accessed for more pictures,<br>videos, or measurements until sold. If you look at pictures/description your<br>question should be answered. Thank you so much for your time and consideration! If you would like to chat, that would be great, but lets chat about something that isn't answered in this listing that we put so much effort into already :)<br><br>All precious metals are tested and guaranteed. A Native American jewelry piece referred to as "silver" or "ingot" is guaranteed to be at least 90% silver. I rarely use the word "sterling" when referring to older Native American silver or really any older silver jewelry as silver contents vary and "sterling" is 92.5% silver. No older jewelry is going to be exactly 92.5% silver, some a little over, some a little under. It wasn't an exact thing with handmade jewelry. I've seen thousands of pieces xrf'd to prove this. Bracelets are photographed on a 6" women's wrist.

William Lawrence deMatteo (1923-1988) 手工锤打纯银叶盘 6.5 英寸 x 4.5 英寸 x 114.5 克，没有任何问题。 威廉·劳伦斯·德马特奥（William Lawrence deMatteo，1923年10月12日至1988年5月14日），银匠和工艺大师，出生于纽约市，是伊丽莎白·罗梅尔曼·德马特奥和威廉·盖塔诺·德马特奥的儿子，威廉·盖塔诺·德马特奥是一位出色的银匠，从萨勒诺的阿西亚罗利移民到美国，意大利，当他还是个孩子的时候，和他的家人在一起。威廉·劳伦斯·德马特奥 (William Lawrence deMatteo) 在新泽西州伯根菲尔德郊区长大，在附近的特纳夫莱 (Tenafly) 上学，同时观察和吸收父亲的精湛技艺。德马特奥于 1941 年开始在哥伦比亚大学学习雕塑和美术，但在美国加入第二次世界大战后，他于 1942 年 11 月加入海军，并在太平洋战区担任鱼雷轰炸机飞行员。 1946 年 11 月 14 日，他在阿斯伯里帕克与画家杰恩·沃波尔 (Jayne Walpole) 结婚，后者后来与他人共同创办了一家美术馆。他们育有三个女儿和一个儿子。德马特奥恢复了父亲的学徒生涯，并可能在朝鲜战争期间被召回海军服役之前继续在哥伦比亚大学学习。 1953年他出院。 比尔·德马特奥（Bill deMatteo），正如人们所熟知的那样，在服役期间参观了修复后的弗吉尼亚殖民地首府，并要求参观银匠店。当得知殖民地威廉斯堡没有这些设施时，他看到了自己的机会。德马特奥离开海军后不久，他回到威廉斯堡，并于 1953 年 7 月加入参谋部，担任银匠。他创建了整个银匠项目，并负责 James Geddy 银匠店，在那里他培训店主向游客解释手工艺，指导和监督学徒进行各种金属加工，并手工制作十八世纪银制品的复制品在店里出售。 。德马特奥还复兴了殖民地银匠詹姆斯·克雷格在威廉斯堡的商店“在金球奖的标志处”。 1963 年 1 月，德马特奥晋升为工匠大师和银匠大师。 根据威廉斯堡殖民地的座右铭——未来可以从过去学习——德马特奥将大部分时间花在教育和广告工作上。根据威廉斯堡殖民地工作人员托马斯·K·布洛克 (Thomas K. Bullock) 准备的一份研究报告，德马特奥于 1956 年出版了《十八世纪威廉斯堡的银匠——关于他的生活和时代以及他的工艺的叙述》，简要介绍了银器制造和所用技术的历史在殖民时代。 DeMatteo 还为 1971 年的视频节目《威廉斯堡的银匠》以及随附的手册提供了大部分信息。在影片中，他展示了制作十八世纪银咖啡壶的每个阶段，从接收银币或待熔化的废料开始，与客户讨论委托细节、方法和设计，然后用锤子塑造作品并抛光完成的咖啡壶。 1971年和1972年，德马特奥在伦敦城市理工学院约翰卡斯爵士艺术系学习设计、银匠和方法，并与专业的伦敦银匠一起学习； 1975 年，他成为第一位被伦敦 Worshipful Company of Goldsmiths 选为荣誉外籍会员的美国工匠。 随着德马特奥的技艺逐渐为工作人员和访客所认识，他收到了许多设计和制作纪念礼物的请求。 1955 年，他为殖民地威廉斯堡制作了一枚城镇传令钟，送给温斯顿·丘吉尔爵士，次年，丘吉尔的照片出现在《生活》杂志的封面上。德马特奥为白宫记者协会向约翰·F·肯尼迪、林登·B·约翰逊、理查德·M·尼克松、杰拉尔德·R·福特和吉米·卡特总统的年度演讲设计了演讲稿。他为来访的总统、女王、国王和总理设计了许多手工制作的礼物，美国国务院委托 deMatteo 制作银托盘，并于 1978 年在戴维营协定中赠送给埃及总统安瓦尔·萨达特和以色列总理梅纳赫姆·贝京。 1976 年，为了纪念亚历山大·格雷厄姆·贝尔 (Alexander Graham Bell) 发明电话一百周年，美国电话电报公司委托德马特奥制作了一件抽象银件，这与他殖民风格的杰作不同，上面刻有贝尔通过电话传送的第一句话。电话。尽管他很聪明，但他是一个谦虚的人，坚持认为自己是一名工匠，而不是艺术家。德马特奥满足于制作美丽的实用物品，他认为这些物品没有达到艺术家所需的想象力和执行力的水平。他对卓越的追求得到了美国建筑师学会的认可，并于 1960 年授予他工艺奖章，以表彰他在工业艺术方面的杰出成就。 在殖民地威廉斯堡工作了 26 年后，德马特奥于 1979 年离开并与家人一起搬到了亚历山大。他与儿子奇普·德马特奥 (Chip deMatteo) 以及殖民地威廉斯堡的同事菲利普·索普 (Philip Thorp) 一起开设了 Hand & Hammer Silversmiths。德马特奥继续探索并扩展他的范围，超越十八世纪的形式。他是一个和蔼可亲的人，以令人放松的微笑而闻名。他是一位强烈的完美主义者，坐在长凳上用锤子塑造贵金属时，对周围的环境充耳不闻。他也是一位足智多谋的工匠，当他在市场上找不到合适的锤子时，他会自己制作锤子。德马特奥曾经说过，“成为一名银匠是一种令人愉快、可爱的生活方式”，虽然他对自己的银制品并不完全满意，但他“对我过的生活非常满意”。威廉·劳伦斯·德马特奥 (William Lawrence deMatteo) 于 1988 年 5 月 14 日在亚历山大的一家医院因白血病去世。他的儿子继续在 Hand & Hammer 银匠店工作，保存了他的骨灰。

Wilson Jim Navajo silver and turquoise pendant. Measurements in pics.All precious metals are tested and guaranteed. A Native American jewelry piece referred to as "silver" or "ingot" is guaranteed to be at least 90% silver. I rarely use the word "sterling" when referring to older Native American silver or really any older silver jewelry as silver contents vary and "sterling" is 92.5% silver. No older jewelry is going to be exactly 92.5% silver, some a little over, some a little under. It wasn't an exact thing with handmade jewelry. I've seen thousands of pieces xrf'd to prove this. Bracelets are photographed on a 6" women's wrist.
