**First Time At Auction**
Native American, Southwest United States, ca. 1920 CE. Zuni Petite Point jewelry is some of the most impressive Native American jewelry and this cuff bracelet is a fine and old example comprised of gilt silver over nickel-silver and Petit Point stones that are oval and pear shaped, hand-cut by a Zuni lapidarist. Zuni artisans are known for their intricate work and their meticulous attention to detail. The Zuni are also highly respected for their stonework and almost never create plain jewelry, as they are known for natural turquoise from the infamous Sleeping Beauty Mine. Petit point is one of their most traditional styles, and pieces are comprised of silvered metal or sterling silver and small, hand-selected turquoise stones. This example boasts remarkable handiwork and beauty. Breathtaking wearable art that is made nowhere else in the world! Composition: 4-5% silver gilt on silver nickel and turquoise stones. Size (opening gap): 1.5" W (3.8 cm); Size: 2.75" L x 2.5" W (7 cm x 6.4 cm); total weight: 78.7 grams
Provenance: private Glorieta, New Mexico, USA collection; ex-Ron Munn collection, Casa Grande, Arizona, USA
