Description

Masterfully crafted this beautiful Sunface ring is the hand crafted work of Master artist Bowman Penwa (c.1930-1960). One of the few Zuni artist that did large channel inlay work, early in his career. This lovely ring features raised channel inlay, of the four sacred colors (stones) of gem quality ox blood coral, black jet, natural high grade Morenci turquoise and white pearl shell. The top width of the ring measures 1 1/8" by 1 1/8" long. Ring size is a 9.

This piece is not hallmarked, but no question as to the maker. This ring was purchased in the late 50's. We have a matching bracelet and pin, which is listed separately.
