“Sunburst Sovereign” - Monumental turquoise cuff
“Sunburst Sovereign: A Monumental Vintage Turquoise Cuff”
Commanding, sculptural, and unmistakably heirloom-worthy, this museum-level vintage cuff is a celebration of old-school Native silversmithing at its finest. A dramatic constellation of hand-cut Fox turquoise—ranging from vibrant sky blues to deep mineral greens—encircles a bold central stone, creating a sunburst layout that feels both organic and intentional. Each cabochon is bezel-set in thick, aged sterling with that coveted patina only decades can create.
The piece carries the presence of early studio craftsmanship: weighty silver, strong symmetry, and stones chosen for personality rather than perfection. It wears like a relic from a different era—one made to be collected, preserved, and passed down. A true statement for the serious connoisseur, this cuff is as visually commanding as it is historically rooted, the kind of piece that becomes the soul of a collection.
