Looking at such beauty tells the capabilities of Native American art! This piece of Native American jewelry is Navajo hand crafted by artist Escher White, out of genuine sterling silver and man made opal. A total of THREE stones are gently placed in hand cut bezel settings. The stone is carefully set in a hand cut bezel setting, while twisted silver, mini silver beads, and hand cut silver work completes the cuff for a beautiful finish. The bracelet is stamped sterling.
Most people know Opal for its distinctive play of color, it is a semi-transparent solidified mineral composed of silicon and water, and it gets its name from the Latin word "Oplus" meaning precious stone. Opal is the birthstone for October. It is believed to release self-consciousness allowing spontaneous action, and awakens psychic and mystical qualities.
