Authentic Native American Handcrafted Jewelry Set
This stunning, matching two-tone Southwestern jewelry set is a verified masterpiece by the highly acclaimed Navajo silversmith Thomas Charley (Tom Charley) of Crownpoint, New Mexico. Active since 1977, Charley is globally celebrated for pioneering this iconic, three-dimensional corrugated "melon rib" (or water bead) design.
The set has a substantial combined weight of 74 grams, highlighting its high-grade structural presence and fine craftsmanship. Please note that only the ring is stamped "TC STERLING", which is a very common practice for Native American artists when creating unified sets. The ring serves as the official provenance marker for both pieces, which share the exact same hand-formed rib spacing, twisted wire trim, and gorgeous vintage patina.

- Metal Purity: Solid .925 Sterling Silver base.
- Total Weight: 74 Grams (Combined set weight).
- Condition: Excellent vintage condition with a gorgeous natural patina. Ready to wear or display in a fine Native American jewelry collection.
