A handmade vintage sterling silver cuff with multi-stone mosaic channel inlay of lapis, opal, onyx and turquoise, by Navajo husband-and-wife artists Phil and Fannie Bitsoi-Russell. Each stone is hand-cut and set tightly between silver channels, so the deep blue, black and flashes of opal play off one another. A true collector's piece.
About the artists: Working together since the 1970s from the Chinle area near Canyon de Chelly, Phil and Fannie Bitsoi-Russell are celebrated for their ultra-fine geometric stone mosaics. Their channel inlay sets blocks of high-grade stone tightly between silver walls, a technique that takes great patience and precision.
