We initially made contact with Navajo silversmith Guy Hoskie in December 2005 when we bought some magnificent cluster pendants from him. We have continued to accumulate his work which is always made with fine natural turquoise stones. This scalloped-edge, graduated row bracelet is set with three ovals of natural Royston turquoise; a pale green oval at the center and two deep green ovals with hints of blue in the stones. Two teardrops of orange spiny oyster finish out the row. Raindrops are interspersed among the various settings to add sparkle to the design. The stampwork on the cuff is deep and precise and nicely highlights the scalloped edges of the cuff. Guy's hallmark consists of his initials "G" and "H" with the word "Sterling" stamped between the letters of his initials. Royston ovals: center 7/8" x 9/16"; (2) 9/16" x 3/8" Orange spiny oyster teardrops: 3/8" x 5/16" Width of cuff: 15/16" Terminal to terminal: 5 1/8" Gap: 7/8" Total inside circumference (including gap): 6"
