We've bought several bracelets from Calvin done in this style. Usually set with one stone, Calvin occasionally sets these slightly convex and mostly uniform-width cuffs with a row of matching stones. The stampwork is always incomparably deep-stamped with wonderful motifs. Never, never does he repeat the same stampwork on one of these bracelets! More than one of our clients has begun a collection of this style bracelet because of the supreme comfort of the design and uniqueness of the stone and stampwork.
This three-stone row bracelet is set with rich blue free-form stones of natural, untreated Blue Ridge turquoise from China. This is not to be confused with the Blue Ridge Turquoise Mine in Lander County, Nevada which is also the source of Orvil Jack turquoise. The stones are mounted on a weighty 12 gauge Sterling cuff decorated with deep-stamped motifs on its sides. This is a splendid piece which defines comfort and a solid feel due to its weight.
