J.J. Gasper Zuni Sterling & Turquoise Timex Watch Bracelet
This vintage watch bracelet is a fine example of Zuni craftsmanship, signed by silversmith J.J. Gasper. The design features 38 bezel-set turquoise cabochons (approx. 3.5 mm each), arranged in traditional cluster style around a Timex water-resistant watch face. Rope edging, silver appliqué, and an expanding stainless band complete the piece.
J.J. Gasper is recognized for producing turquoise cluster jewelry in the mid-20th century, and his signed works appear in vintage markets and auctions. This bracelet captures the artistry for which Zuni silversmiths are renowned—precise stone setting, balance, and beauty. A distinctive blend of functional watchmaking and Native American silverwork, it stands as both jewelry and collectible art.
