Vintage Zuni Opal & Black Onyx Inlaid Sterling Silver Ring, Size 11

Stunning combination of stones!  This is a great example of Native American inlaid stone work.  This is a vintage Zuni  Native American sterling silver ring that is signed AD by the artist.  It is done with lovely inlay work.  The stones are opals and black onyx.  The coloring really makes the opals stand out.  The inlay is separated by thin silver lines.  The center section of the flowing lines are actually unique cut-out channel.  Beautiful piece!  Size: 11  Condition: Very good vintage condition, vintage patina consistent with age; under magnification I saw a very tiny flea bite on the edge of one of the onyx; reflected in the lower price Weight:  16.2 grams Measurement: 0.85 or 21.61 mm wide Markings:  AD Sterling  I lightly polish my vintage silver as some people like the aged patina. Please examine enlarged photos for details. This is much more beautiful in real life!  I am not an expert on vintage jewelry, but I do buy and sell what I love! Since these items are vintage, they may have a wonderful aged patina and are not meant or expected to look brand new. I treasure their imperfections as part of their charm and history.
