Description
 
This meticulously crafted Zuni cluster bracelet was hand fabricated by renowned Zuni silversmiths, Warren and Doris Ondelacy. It is set with 116 hand cut natural Morenci turquoise cabochons that are carefully set in fine hand crafted saw tooth bezels. Silver twist wire with an open repousse design, creates a beautiful frame around the center turquoise cluster of stones. The out edge has silver drops that are placed at the end and centered between each stone. The artists continues the design on the side portions of this bracelet and completes the design with twist wire and repousse on the heavy tri-wire shank. The top of the bracelet measures 3 1/4" wide, with a inside measurement of 5 3/4" plus a 1 1/8" opening. This bracelet is dated to the 1940's and does not have a maker's mark--being of a time when such things were not commonly done.
