DESCRIPTION:
This incredible turquoise and coral combination showcases a magnificent example of how the finest Native American jewelry is made! This piece of Native American jewelry is Navajo hand crafted out of genuine sterling silver, a real Turquoise stone, and real Corals. A total of THREE Coral stones and TWO Turquoise stones are carefully placed in hand cut bezel settings, while mini silver beads and hand crafted scalloped leaf designs highlight the bracelet for a charming finish.
Turquoise is the birthstone of December. It is believed that turquoise tends to bring good fortune, strength and helps overcome illness. Turquoise got its name from the Levantine traders called Turks who brought the stone to Europe from Persia via Turkey centuries ago. Native Americans have prized turquoise since the time of the Aztecs, who mined it in New Mexico. The natural variations that occur in turquoise are part of their appeal and beauty.
Corals are known to be very soothing and very protective. Coral is of an organic origin; it is the skeletal remains of marine animals called Coral Polyps. Colonies of these tiny creatures build branching structures as they grow, gradually forming reefs and atolls.
