Vintage Native American Style Cuff Bracelet Featuring Large Petrified Wood Cabochon - The cuff bracelet is constructed from silver-toned metal, consistent with the weight and style of early Native American jewelry, likely Sterling Silver. The design features a heavy three-wire shank, composed of two outer stamped bands exhibiting fine engraved ornamentation and one central twisted wire band. The centerpiece is a substantial oval cabochon gemstone, measuring approximately 1.5 inches in length. The stone displays complex, variegated patterns of white, gray, orange, and reddish-brown, consistent with petrified wood or plume agate. The stone is secured in a traditional bezel setting, further enhanced by twisted rope detailing and applied metal beadwork surrounding the bezel. This piece reflects the aesthetic of the Fred Harvey Era or early Navajo craftsmanship. No visible hallmarks or purity stamps are present. Weight 1.68 oz
