Here is a top-quality contemporary multigem inlaid sterling silver ring, created by the world wide recognized Navajo artist, Jim Harrison. The ring is inlaid with an array of stones: turquoise, malachite, spiny oyster, rhodonite, black jet and MOP. The face of the ring measures 1-1/4 inch tall by 5/8 inch wide at the front. Size 8-1/2.
The turquoise square inlaid in the center of the ring is NOT cracked - that is matrix of the stone.
The work of Jimmie Harrison is very distinctive and easily recognizable. He works primarily with sterling silver and authentic multi-colored inlaid stones. There are few working silversmiths capable of this level of stone to stone inlay jewelry. Many people upon seeing Jim Harrison jewelry think these designs are painted. Jim Harrison creates these designs and then cuts and inlays each stone himself.
He credits Preston Monongye and Jessie Monongye for his success as a fine jewelry artisan.
Brand new and in perfect condition. Hallmarked by and purchased directly from the artist. Gift Box and Authenticity Certificate included.
