ABOUT THE ARTIST:

Having the bloodlines from 3 different Native American tribes, Roie's affiliation belongs to the Navajo, Acoma and Apache tribes. He was brought up Navajo and taught the Navajo culture. He speaks, writes and reads the Navajo language.

Wearing a few different hats, Roie has not only been a master silversmith for nearly a 1/2 of century, but also wears the hat of a weaver, which he learned this particular art from his mother. Using the wool that's taken from his own sheep, Roie then shears the wool, washes and cleans the wool then cards and spins the wool into yarn.

THE RING::

Hogging all the spotlight, is a fabulous cut of high quality-natural turquoise that comes from the Bisbee mine. The color, the matrix & the character are all simply outstanding & Roie couldn't have made a better choice but to keep the sterling design simple, in order for the stone to stay in the spotlight, since it's all about the quality of the stone in this one!!

The large 1.75" long cut is accented by beading & a hand made leaf design that sits quietly in the background. The face sits on a quad split shank which helps to balance the face's size.

This is a sizeable ring,so if you need to go bigger, any jeweler can pop the stone in order to solder additional sterling onto the shank.(This is something you would do since I do not provide this service.) To go smaller,I would use the 'Moleskin" method.

PLEASE READ BEFORE PURCHASING:
****I do not consider myself a 'professional photographer" but I do try to give you photos that are 'realistic" in color,just so you're not shocked, nor disappointed when you get the piece. Although jewelry generally always looks better in person, you still have to take the monitor you're looking at the item with, into consideration. Please go through each photo to see any variation to get an idea. Whether it be your computer monitor or phone screen, the item can appear to be either more vivid (Or duller).

In order to give you close up photos so I can provide you with all the detail, photos can tend to make the item look much more larger & everything is more magnified than in actuality. So to get an idea of size,you can either look at it on the finger (photo 2) or if you have a measuring tape, please pull it out & compare everything to the measurements I provided you with.
