With silver balls between the stones and a feather with silver ball below the stones. The tips measure 1 1/8" wide by 1 1/2" long. As with older jewelry, the owner has also signed the piece. The artist has stamped it A. CHEAMA and the original owner has engraved LIC.. It has had a newer stretchband added to it. A true collector's piece!  $76.95
