Fred Harvey Era Sterling Silver Large Navajo Turquoise Ring - Sterling Silver. The centerpiece is a large oval cabochon, appearing to be natural turquoise, exhibiting a vibrant blue-green hue heavily patterned with brown and copper matrix inclusions, consistent with high-matrix material often sourced from mines such as Royston. The stone is secured in a smooth bezel setting, which is further framed by a thick, decorative rope-twist wire border. The ring features a sturdy triple-split shank. The shoulders of the ring are embellished with stylized stamped or cast leaf motifs. The overall construction suggests a vintage Native American or Southwestern style. Sz 11
