Golden Hills Turquoise Adjustable Ring with Filework by Glen Washington, Navajo

Glen Washington, a Navajo silversmith, set a Golden Hills turquoise stone in an adjustable sterling silver ring with highly detailed filework and appliqué accents. Filework involves cutting decorative patterns into silver with a jeweler's file — a labor-intensive technique that creates fine linear texture around the stone setting. Golden Hills turquoise is mined in Kazakhstan and prized for its unusual periwinkle-blue and lavender tones. Available exclusively through Turquoise Mustang.
