This beautiful bracelet
features a very beautiful natural turquoise leaf that was hand carved by renowned Zuni
artist, Leekya Deyuse. We believe Jerry Watson did the silver work. Jerry worked for C.G. Wallace and was known to collaborate with Leekya. The turquoise is from one of the early finds of the
Herget mine in Arizona that was once owned and operated, by C.G. Wallace. The lovely design of the bracelet with the soft green leaf looks beautiful on!
The leaf measures 1” long by 5/8” wide. The
leaf is set in a smooth bezel, with a unique silver framed edging. There are 2 side
panels, with fine stamping around each repousse. The hand hammered shanks
are also deeply stamped at the side and bottom of the terminals. The inside measures 5 3/8” with a 1 1/8” opening. The previous owner took
amazing care of this piece, as it is in excellent condition with a soft patina on the entire bracelet.
