Lester James, Bracelet, Morenci Turquoise, Tufa Cast, Navajo Handmade, 6 5/8”





Lester James, Bracelet, Morenci Turquoise, Tufa Cast, Navajo Handmade, 6 5/8”
Turquoise cutters never know what the stone is going to look like until they cut it, just like lapidary artists. When Navajo artist Lester James cut these stones, I can only imagine how pleased he was. These Morenci Turquoise stones keep a consistent deep blue color all the way through the stone and are filled with that legendary iron pyrite matrix. Lester carves the perfect silver setting from tufa stone for the collectible American rocks. A heavy carved border creates an almost shadow box setting, and along with the natural texture and antique finish everything comes together perfectly on this piece. You are going to be very pleased with this piece and it will definitely become one of your favorites.
