Description
7.5" Delores Paul Yazzie (1935-2024) Navajo silver #8 Turquoise coral cuff bracelet. Amazing bracelet, circa 1970‘s. Delores was an active silversmith in the 70‘s-80‘s, later in life put most of her energy into weaving Navajo blankets. No issues, weight and 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.
