ABOUT HAPPY PIASSO:
Born in '72 in Socorro,NM & was raised in Alamo,NM.. Happy has been making jewelry approximately half of her life & learned the traditional art of silversmithing from her husband "Rudy Willie" who she teams with.. Her husband Rudy is apart of the well known “Willie Family” with "Ronnie Willie" being just one of his brothers out of many well known artisan siblings. Happy is an artist that never strays from giving us traditional Navajo jewelry & is committed to this art that was passed on from their Navajo ancestors .
**************************
THE RING:
This is made where the quality of this particular cut of turquoise overrides it's dainty petite size.It has a magnificent cut of Royston that has polychrome colors of both teal & green! The stone is accentuated by a border of little star conchos that Happy makes herself & are what really help to give the ring, it's Navajo vibe!
The face sits atop of a 1/4" wide sterling chiseled corrugated band.The underside & shank have a contemporary mirror polish finishing, where as the top of the ring, is left oxidized for contrast.
Makes the perfect ring for those who love turquoise jewelry,but without the size many are made with! Great gift idea for a teenager to an adult woman!

*****I do not consider myself a 'professional photographer" but I do try my best to give you photos that are 'realistic" in color,just so you're not disappointed when you get the item. I find photographing anything with 'yellow' in it, (orange, green) can come up a little more vivid, depending on your monitor, so please take this into consideration. So please go through all photos to see ANY variation.
In order to show all the fine detail, close up photos tend to make the item look much larger & everything also is more magnified .So to get an accurate idea of how big this is,please view photo of it on the finger or you can pull out a tape measure & compare to my given measurements in the "Specifics".
