It is slower work than stamping and it gives the piece a depth you can feel with a thumb.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBetween the raised elements the field is filled with stamped arrows, chevrons and crescents, all struck by hand. A small Kingman turquoise sits at the crossing point in a twisted rope bezel, and it is the only colour on the piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bail is its own object: an ornate stamped tube hung on a plain silver ring, so the concho swings freely rather than sitting rigid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKingman is one of the oldest and best known Arizona mines, still producing, known for clean bright blue with dark matrix.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eStyling\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt hangs from a wide stamped bail that takes a heavy chain, so it will sit on Navajo pearls, a thick box chain, or a leather cord without looking under hung. Worn alone it does all the work; it does not need layering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCondition\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExcellent.
