This fantastic Native American handmade sterling silver & turquoise ring, was hand made by master Navajo silversmith, L. Bruce Hodgins. The natural King's Manassa turquoise stone is a wonderful shade of green with golden matrix.

King's Manassa turquoise was originally mined by ancestral pueblo peoples. The mine was re-discovered in 1890 by gold prospector I.P. King and his descendants still work the mine. King's Manassa is a very collectible turquoise.

The face of the ring measures 1-1/16" long by 7/8" wide, at the widest point. The wide fancy band narrows to about 5/16" at the back. The ring weighs 20.1 grams. Size 7.

Brand new and in perfect condition. Gift Box and Certificate of Authenticity included. Purchased directly from and hallmarked by the artist. Bruce usually prefers working with more exotic stones, but he graciously agreed to make me a few turquoise rings. Here is your opportunity to purchase an outstanding quality ring with a natural King's Manassa turquoise stone at a very reasonable price!
