Description

Vintage Navajo Turquoise Cluster Ring Sterling Silver Size 4

Vintage Navajo turquoise cluster ring crafted in tested sterling silver and set with nine natural turquoise cabochons. The oval face features a classic mid-century cluster arrangement, with each stone secured in hand-cut saw-tooth bezels. Raised silver drop accents and twisted rope wire detailing divide the stones, creating depth and strong visual contrast against the darkened silver background.

The turquoise displays soft to vivid sky-blue tones, with natural matrix visible in select stones, including the center cabochon. Stone sizes range slightly, consistent with hand-cut, non-calibrated material rather than modern production. The silverwork shows hand-fabricated construction throughout, including the bezels and decorative elements, with no casting seams observed.

Based on materials, construction, and design, this ring is consistent with mid-20th-century Navajo turquoise silverwork, dating to the 1940s–1960s. 


Condition

In good vintage condition overall, with surface wear and natural patina consistent with age and use. The ring has not been polished; polishing is left to the buyer’s preference. All stones are secure in their settings, with no loose or missing elements noted.
