Description
 

This fabulous bracelet is the work of well-known Hopi artist Ralph Tawangyaouma. Ralph Tawangyaouma was actively making jewelry from 1906 into the late 1960’s. He was known for his unique style in jewelry, not always traditional overlay Hopi style. He was a very spiritual man and was a Two-Horned Priest in his Hotevilla Village. He worked for a period of time in Phoenix Arizona as a silversmith for Fred Wilson’s TP and Vaughn’s. His work is highly collectable and adored by many!

This gorgeous cuff offers the best of Ralph's amazing abilities as an artist and also a vintage piece of history. Beautiful and precise stamp work designs on the side plates. Heavy twist wire and center looped wire are perfectly done on this super bracelet.

The width of the cuff measures 1 1/2". The inside measures 5 3/4" with a 1 1/4" opening. Slightly adjustable. The cuff is hallmarked with Ralphs rain cloud and H. Excellent condition. 118 grams.
