When I first saw this bracelet, my immediate thought was a classic Zuni cluster creation. However, when you turn the piece over you will find the hallmark for Navajo silversmith Leroy Thomas. This talented silversmith spent some of his years working for the legendary White Hogan shop in Scottsdale, AZ. You will notice the hallmark is on a separate piece of silver and was soldered onto the back plate of the bracelet. Could possibly mean he did a repair to the piece and added his mark for that, I don't know. Whatever the case the bracelet is an amazing collection of Nevada's legendary Lone Mountain Turquoise. This is a beautiful bracelet that comes complete with an amazing patina and natural American stones.
