Vintage Spiny Oyster and Silver inlay Bracelet
This is an oldie but a super goodie. It is a very nice heavy bracelet made of Sterling
Silver (marked) by ELC whom I think is Hopi. The reason I think it is Hopi is because of
the clan type markings etc on the back. It is a nice band of heavy silver which is
about 5/8" tall displaying 17 pieces of spiny oyster each divided by a very thin band of
silver. Incredible inlay work . This bracelet measures about 5-1/4" on the inside of the
band with an additional 1-3/8" opening , giving you a total of about 6-5/8". Now I would
recommend that you do NOT attempt to adjust this bracelet as it is not made to be
adjusted. It weighs in about 45 grams , giving you a nice heavy weight older vintage
bracelet. Yes, I have cleaned this on as it was so black , I could not even read what
what was on the back of the band. Excellent vintage condition.
