A STUNNING MARY KALLESTEWA SUN MAIDEN CUFF!!!! Mary Kallestewa was one of C.G. Wallace’s and Zuni’s greatest silversmiths! Many of her pieces are and have been showcased in museums throughout the WORLD. This Unique CHANNEL INLAY CUFF, created in the 1950’s, features Onyx, Mother of Pearl, Spiny Oyster, Coral and Turquoise. It is also adorned with thickly twisted silver. Cuff’s of this caliber, especially made by Kallestewa, are very difficult to obtain. Pieces, like these, in fact, are more than often saved by true collectors and traders. Usually, her necklaces and pins are easier to come across. We are thrilled to offer THIS ABSOLUTELY ENCHANTING PIECE for sale!!! It weighs 86 grams and measures 5" with a 3/8 gap
