Handmade Native American Zuni snake eye sleeping beauty turquoise Sterling Silver Ring Size 8 stamped. 

Snake eye is a technique of setting very small spherical pieces of turquoise. It is somewhat related to petit point and needle point but different in shape and much smaller.

There are 5 hand cut stones soldered and inlayed into a silver bezel.

The ring is approximately 1/4  inch’s wide.

Very beautiful and simple.

Weight: 1.6 grams.

Located in Globe, AZ, the Sleeping Beauty turquoise mine is one of the most well known producers of turquoise in the world, producing everything from low grade white chalk to a hard, sky blue material with clarity that has made it famous in European markets where they prefer turquoise with no matrix. For years, due to it’s consistent color, low cost and high availability, it has also been extremely popular among Native American artists, particularly from the Zuni Pueblo.
