ABOUT THE ARTIST:

There's a certain look that is found with the jewelry that comes out of the Gallup area & you can definitely see this geographical' s influence in Tyler's work. Now 32 years old & producing some of the hottest looking Navajo jewelry in today's market where he's built a name for himself that is now in high demand, Tyler could not escape the art of jewelry making since he happens to be the son of the late Navajo artist, "DEAN BROWN".. Dean taught the young Tyler the art of making traditional Navajo jewelry where he taught him 1st with earrings where he had him working with super light gauge 32 gauge sterling, so if there were many mistakes(Which there were!) it wouldn't be too, too costly.

Tyler comes from a long list of well known Navajo artists with just a few of his uncles being Hemerson Brown, Anthony Skeets & Lee Charley. His cousin is Mathew Charley & the late KIRK SMITH was a 2nd uncle.. He LOVES working with vivid colored materials & is always working on trying to come up with new ways to create different style cluster pieces, which are another favorite style that he loves making!

THE RING:

This ring is apart of a broken up set (each are sold separate) & is designed with a unique color of Spiny Oyster that leans toward having almost like a New Mexico red clay color, having somewhat of a beautiful "rusty red" color..It's quite the statement ring that's large & highly noticeable when displayed on the hand..

What I love is for the fact that each cut not only matches in color from one cut to the next, but each cut are perfectly calibrated in size as well.. These cuts play a dominate role to the uniform look the ring has & these cuts could not have been any better picked!

Presently set at a size 8, Tyler made this with an adjustable shank..I bring it up to about a size for you,but I prefer you take it to your reputable jeweler to go down in size, if needed.(Please understand, If I adjust it, any thought of returning it is out of the question, since it then becomes custom fitted, so please be definite)
