Vintage Native American Navajo / Zuni Turquoise Ring Silver Signed By Artist

Native American sterling silver and turquoise ring, characteristic of classic Southwestern artistry. The central natural turquoise cabochon is secured by a clean bezel, framed by a textured border featuring deep decorative grooving. The sides feature stylized, fan-like scalloped or feather elements that taper seamlessly into a split-shank band, a structural design frequently utilized by mid-to-late 20th-century Navajo and Zuni silversmiths. The mark features a JD artist signature stamped with arrow pattern design, typical of handmade Native American Southwestern jewelry. The initials JD are heavily associated with several active and vintage Native American silversmiths. Most notably, it is used by John Duran (Navajo), Jeanette Dale (Navajo), or historically by early Zuni silversmith Juan de Dios. This is a size 6
