Calvin Martinez-Kingman Turquoise Ring – Old Style

Navajo silversmith Calvin Martinez gets many ideas for his great pieces of handmade art from publications and old pawn showcases. This ring is inspired by one of those wonderful old creations. Calvin begins with an amazing piece of legendary Kingman Turquoise. The American rock shows a stunning bluish green color with a thick webbed brown matrix flowing through it. Surrounding the stone you will find twisted wire and around the edge of the ring he has creating an almost looking silver crown, fit for a King or Queen. The band is a very comfortable tapered fit that has been decorated with old style stamp work. Calvin finishes the silver with a popular antique look.
