Hopi Tony Kyasyousie Ring Sterling Silver Size 10 Mother Of Pearl Hand Made 1970

This is a large hand made Hopi Tony Kyasyousie sterling silver Native American sterling silver Mother Of Pearl and tortoise shell ring measuring 1.25 inches by 1 inch.

The ring is all hand made and hand engraved and is signed with the initials TK for Hopi silversmith Hopi Tony Kyasyousie who worked in the Southwest in the 1970s.
The Mother of Pearl is surrounded by 2 ropes of twisted silver of a rope design with hand engraving and cutting.

The ring has a split design shank and is a size 10 but could be sized by a reputable jeweler, although it must be s skilled one used to working with silver so the natural materials aren't damaged because silver transfers heat much faster than gold during the sizing process.

The hand made, artisan ring dates from the 1970s. This is one of his earlier pieces, as starting in the 1980s he added a rabbit stick pictorial mark to his pieces. In very good used vintage condition.
