Couldn't load pickup availability
Navajo artist Michael Perry combines traditional tufa-cast silverwork with natural Kingman turquoise and red Mediterranean coral. The turquoise is framed by a hand-sawn castellated bezel, while Perry’s distinctive rug-pattern design and coral inlay bring color and detail throughout the piece.
The sterling silver has the textured character of tufa casting, contrasted by polished hand-sawn silverwork surrounding the stone. Red Mediterranean coral is carefully inlaid into the geometric accents and continues along the outer edge and bail, creating a strong contrast against the blue turquoise.
Handcrafted in .925 sterling silver, the pendant has Michael Perry’s MP hallmark on the reverse.
