Marlena Tom, Pilot Mountain Turquoise, Old Style, Navajo Handmade, 6 3/4"
When the first Navajo silversmiths were learning to make jewelry the tourists hadn't arrived in the Four Corners yet, and they wouldn't be showing up for another half-century. The pieces being made were for personal use or trade. Some of the early pieces included ways to adorn your horse or buttons to dress-up your clothing. Once the tourist showed up styles changed, but the one thing that didn't was the dedication to excellence. This bracelet by Marlena Tom continues that tradition. She uses a stunning Pilot Mountain Turquoise stone that has a large freeform cut and unique green color. The silver compliments the Nevada rock by creating an old style look. Enjoy wearing this signature Navajo style, it will be admired by all who see it.
