Traditional Navajo Artisan -LEON MARTINEZ -HUGE Grade AAAAA Royston Turquoise- Hand Tooled - Old School / Vintage Revival Ring- Adj .Size 11
This huge statement ring is designed in a style that Leon does best & that's in a very traditional Navajo-vintage revival way..This ring literally screams "Navajo" in design & size. It has a pristine quality that is witnessed throughout, from the top notch-gem grade cut of the most GORGEOUS Royston turquoise, to his phenomenal precise workmanship & finally, it's vintage style finishing!
Letting the shape of the stone dictate the design,Leon then built the sterling work around it.Sitting atop of a 2-5/8" x 2" heavy gauge platform,the stone is framed by thick gauge twisted wire, precisely matched hand made beads & a eye catching scalloped perimeter that has deep tooling within each curve.The design is what I would call perfect & no where does it lose it’s form. This alone, is a sign of a skilled artist.
The finishing is oxidized & the sterling is brought to a maximum level of beauty! This finishing accentuates each part of the ring. The shank is adjustable & if your ring size is much smaller than a size 11,you can have a reputable jeweler cut down the shank & then rewrap it like it is to maintain it's adjustability.(See photo 11) A good jeweler wouldn't have to use any solder,nor remove the stone in order to open up the shank & then cut down.You can also show them the photo get their opinion.
