S. Sanchez Zuni Sterling Silver & Turquoise Petit-Point Cuff – 20 Stones
Signed by Zuni silversmith S. Sanchez, this finely crafted sterling silver cuff is a textbook example of Zuni petit-point artistry. Featuring 20 slender turquoise cabochons—each approximately 6.57 x 2.2 mm—the stones are individually bezel-set in a continuous row, bordered with rope and sawtooth silverwork for a clean, elegant profile. The dual split-shank design provides both durability and balance, while the natural patina of the silver offers a warm vintage character. Known for meticulous stone placement and precision, Zuni artists like Sanchez create pieces that emphasize both technical skill and refined beauty.
With its lightweight construction at 18.33 grams, this cuff is comfortable for daily wear but retains the sophistication of handcrafted Native American jewelry. Signed “S. Sanchez” and marked “Zuni” on the interior, it carries both cultural authenticity and collectible appeal.
