Awesome labor went into this beautiful cuff bracelet by Zuñi artist, Gloria Acque. This meticulously crafted silver piece is set with five rows of hand-cut natural fine turquoise - a total of 85 stones hand set in a band of blue, as attractive today, as it was when Gloria Acque made it in 1975.  The inside is signed with her mark "G. Acque".
