Vintage 1940s Zuni Morenci turquoise three-stone cuff
A remarkable turquoise and silver bracelet set with three exquisite examples of Morenci turquoise with iron pyrite matrix. Morenci turquoise is highly sought after and comes from a mine in Southeastern Arizona. Turquoise from this mine is a by-product of a massive copper mining operation. Although the mine is still in operation turquoise is no longer produced there. This bracelet may be classified as "old pawn" Navajo jewelry, dating to the 1930s or 1940s. It has a thick double shank cuff with flared ends. The turquoise is bezel set with twisted silver wire frames and leaf accents. Patina preserved. This bracelet came the from estate of a collector and dates to the 1940s.
