Gigantic Vintage Zuni Carved Leaf Spiderweb Nugget Turquoise SterlingSilver Ring

Description

This is a one of a kind vintage heavy and massive spider web nugget turquoise ring hand carved with a large leaf. The ring appears to have a marking of a raised dot ( could be part of a letter) with 2 smaller dots and appears to be encased in a letter, (as seen in last photo). The carved leaf is made up of small nuggets that is called spiderweb and you can see the translucent rich blue circles that appear in on the turquoise stone and if you look closely, the complete ring is made up of all spiderweb round nugget shaped circles with some, more pronounced than others. The ring is made with a double sterling silver band to reinforce its heavy and large turquoise but is very comfortable wearing on the finger. It also has nice hand stamping on the sterling silver. The ring weighs a whopping “56 grams/1.94 ounces.” The ring finger size is 9. The spiderweb turquoise stone alone is 1 7/8” inch long x 1 1/8” wide. The turquoise raises out of its bezel 3/8” high. The ring tincluding the bezel is: slightly over 2” inches long x 1 3/8” wide. This ring came from a very wealthy estate and surly it was a prized piece.
