Mark Yazzie Navajo Turquoise Sterling Silver Collector Cuff

A commanding collector cuff by Navajo/Diné silversmith Mark Yazzie, featuring a substantial oval turquoise cabochon with vivid blue-green color and dramatic golden-brown matrix.

The stone is framed in twisted sterling silver ropework and surrounded by deeply stamped fan and leaf motifs, polished silver drops, and an architectural open split-band design. Oxidized recesses emphasize the hand-worked detailing and give the cuff the dimensional, sculptural character associated with fine Southwestern silverwork.

The reverse is signed Mark Yazzie and stamped Sterling, identifying both the artist and metal.

This is a substantial statement piece with strong visual presence, intricate silverwork, and a beautifully patterned turquoise centerpiece. Designed for the collector who wants jewelry that reads as wearable art rather than an everyday accessory.
