{"product_id":"vintage-alex-sanchez-navajo-sterling-silver-14k-gold-turquoise-petroglyph-cuff","title":"Vintage Alex Sanchez Navajo Sterling Silver 14K Gold Turquoise Petroglyph Cuff","description":"Acclaimed Navajo and Zuni artist Alex Sanchez is deeply respected for his masterful metalwork and signature petroglyph appliqué technique. Petroglyphs are ancient rock carvings created by pecking directly into stone surfaces, serving as powerful early forms of historical communication and spiritual expression. This substantial, heavy-gauge cuff beautifully honors that tradition, utilizing classic motifs with profound meaning. A prominent central bear anchors the design, representing strength, courage, and physical healing, while a dynamic heartline reflects the breath of life. Swirling stamped spirals symbolize the continuous journey of life and the crucial presence of water. An exceptionally high-grade natural turquoise cabochon displaying a vivid matrix rests seamlessly alongside solid 14K gold accents and a deeply oxidized, textured silver background. With precious metal values currently reaching historical highs, this masterful artifact offers both incredible wearability and tremendous, lasting intrinsic value.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSpecs\u003cbr\u003e Maker\/Artist: Alex Sanchez\u003cbr\u003e Year Made: 2000s\u003cbr\u003e Materials: Sterling Silver, 14K Gold, Turquoise\u003cbr\u003e Dimensions: 2.5\" H x 2.6\" W x 2.0\" D (Measurements are approximate overall exterior dimensions.
