If you are looking for elegance and beauty, you have found it! This piece of Native American jewelry is Zuni hand crafted by artist Marlene Shekya, out of genuine sterling silver along with a Cubic Zirconia stone and real Multicolor inlay. The inlay consists of: Turquoise, Coral, Jet and Yellow Mother of Pearl. The stone is delicately placed in a silver prong setting at the center of the ring, while the inlay is carefully set on either side of the stone. Thin silver lines can be seen accenting in between the inlay for a marvelous look. The ring is stamped sterling and hallmarked.
Turquoise is the birthstone of December. It is believed that turquoise tends to bring good fortune, strength and helps overcome illness. Turquoise got its name from the Levantine traders called Turks who brought the stone to Europe from Persia via Turkey centuries ago. Native Americans have prized turquoise since the time of the Aztecs, who mined it in New Mexico. The natural variations that occur in turquoise are part of its appeal and beauty.
Corals are known to be very soothing and very protective. Coral is of an organic origin; it is the skeletal remains of marine animals called Coral Polyps. Colonies of these tiny creatures build branching structures as they grow, gradually forming reefs and atolls.
