I love jewelry! Just can’t get enough and have been searching for a large turquoise and silver cuff bracelet for years that would fit my skinny wrist. These are traditionally made by the Navajo.
Found this beauty at Jacob Lake with the pawn ticket. Can’t be sure where the turquoise was mined. Could be Kingman or Sleeping Beauty according to the store owner who took it in on trade. Read about old pawn here.
That’s a great find. Have fun in Yarnell! Drive safe!
Lovely bracelet! I love the old style Naive American jewelry. I really go for the sandcast stuff, you hardly see it anymore.
It’s beautiful, Gaelyn – I love it!!! All my turquoise jewelry is in the states. I’m partial to Bisbee Blue.
Like Scorpion King 🙂
Gorgeous!
That is a beauty!!! It’s very unique and looks like something the mighty Isis would wear. Very cool!
That turquoise cuff is just gorgeous. My birthstone is turquoise and I love silver. I have never been able to find a cuff that looked right on me since I have small wrists and forearms. That one sure is a beauty.
Thanks for the link to Old Pawn. Very interestsing. I’ve never thought to go to a pawn shop for jewelry. Also the silver cleaning method is interesting. I’m going to try to find out some more about that. Yucca grows everywhere.
The Native American items always look beautiful and interesting. Would love to get my hands on soem items one day.
Both pieces are beautiful, great find on the second.
Love the jewelry. I do love turquoise and cuffs are great. I have several newer pieces but do love the older native look. MB
You are definitely a jewelry gal! Looks good on your wrist.
It’s beautiful Gaelyn! You’re a great treasure hunter. I’m glad to be back in Blogland and will catch up soon……we were in 4-corners area, wish we’d had more time…..
Love the bracelet it is stunning, I would like that myself. Have a good trip. Diane
The bracelet is gorgeous. Turquoise is naturally fascinating and that is really genuine.
