Item # 337P - Lg Vintage Navajo 35 Stone Turquoise Watch Bracelet
WOW! Beautiful and bold vintage Navajo 35 stone turquoise nugget watch bracelet. Made with seventeen small turquoise nuggets on each side and a larger nugget mounted to the clasp underneath. Appears the stones are from many different mines. Ranging from dark blue, light blue, and green-blue nuggets with matrix colors ranging from tan to black grit to no matrix. All stones are set in hand cut saw toothed bezels. All are mounted to blackened bases with twisted rope on all four sides and crescent moon stamping down both sides. The watch section has twisted rope and stamped sides using the same stamp across the watch pin guards. The locking clasp on the under side had four silver drops with bird tracks stamped into them with the stone somewhat centered between the drops. Five sections all together with cotter pins connecting each section to the next and a push button clasp to connect the cuff. The wide watch bracelet measures 2" wide at widest point and narrow down to 1 1/8" at the clasp. It will fit a wrist size of 7" to 7 1/4" and cannot be adjusted. The watch bracelet weighs 84.7 grams (2.99 ounces) and is unsigned although there is a LY under clear polish. Could be the artist or possibly a previous owner. It seams to be sterling grade silver and in great shape! $324.95
