OLD PAWN ZUNI FLUSH CUT INLAY SILVER & TURQUOISE,SPINY OYSTER CUFF BRACELET-NR

Description

I AM OFFERING A VINTAGE ESTATE  INTRICATE, FLUSH CUT INLAID TURQUOISE AND SPINY OYSTER SET IN SILVER  ZUNI BRACELET.
I PURCHASED IT IN THE MID SEVENTIES FROM MAURY RESNICK WHO OWNED THE ICONIC JEWEL BOX PAWN SHOP IN DOWNTOWN PHOENIX. HE WAS ALSO A MAJOR BUYER FROM THE C.G. WALLACE COLLECTION.
THE INTRICATE FLUSH CUT INLAY WORK ON THE BRACELET IS EXCEPTIONAL.
THE NUMEROUS TURQUOISE ARE VERY EVENLY MATCHED AND OF GOOD COLOR.
THE SILVER IS UNMARKED AS TYPICAL OF THE EARLIER NATIVE AMERICAN JEWELRY BUT TESTS AS COIN OR BETTER.
THE BRACELET WEIGHS 1.6 OUNCES.
THE INSIDE MEASUREMENT IS ABOUT 5 INCHES FROM END TO END AND THE GAP OR OPENING BETWEEN THE ENDS  IS ABOUT 1.25 INCHES.
PLEASE BE AWARE THE BRACELET CAN NOT BE EXPANDED DUE TO ITS RIGIDITY.
THE BRACELET IS  ABOUT 5/8 INCHES WIDE OR UP AND DOWN FROM THE MIDDLE TO THE ENDS.
THE BRACELET HAS NOT BEEN POLISHED AND THERE ARE SUPERFICIAL SCRATCHES ON THE SILVER  AND OTHER SUBTLE INDICATIONS  OF THE BRACELET'S  AGE AND USE.
I HAVE ENJOYED COLLECTING  NATIVE AMERICAN AND TAXCO SILVER JEWELRY FOR OVER FORTY YEARS BUT AM NOW DOWNSIZING AND SELLING MANY OF MY PRIZED FINDS.
THE BRACELET IS IN GOOD  UNPOLISHED CONDITION WITH SUBTLE EVIDENCE TO BE EXPECTED FROM  AGE AND USE.
IT IS A QUALITY NATIVE AMERICAN WORK OF ART AND ALTHOUGH UNSIGNED IT WAS OBVIOUSLY MADE BY A MASTER ZUNI CRAFTSMAN.
IT WOULD BE AN EXCEPTIONAL ADDITION TO ANY NATIVE AMERICAN JEWELRY COLLECTION.
USPS SHIPPING  IN THE CONTINENTAL USA WITH TRACKING AND SIGNATURE CONFIRMATION  IS FREE.
PLEASE CHECK OUT THE PHOTOS AS THEY ARE PART OF THE DESCRIPTION AND ASK ANY QUESTIONS PRIOR TO BIDDING.
PAYMENT IS DUE AND EXPECTED WITHIN 2 DAYS  OF THE WINNING BID.
THANKS FOR LOOKING!
