It is set with two stunning, older, natural turquoise stones (please look closely at pictures) and highlighted with a wavy terminal with twisted wire accents. It has a great weighted feel to it and it made from sterling silver. The Sandcast process uses a special type of sand that has a clay-like consistency to create a mold into which molten silver is poured.

Approx. Age: Circa 1950s-60s.

Size: Inside circumference measures approx. 5-7/8 inches with an 1-1/4 additional inch opening (making it fit an approx. 7-1/8 inch wrist.) It is 2-1/8 inches wide at its widest part and weighs 118.9 g.

Condition: Good for its age. There is a small hairline crack in one stone, please see pictures. Normal wear and minor imperfections expected on used and vintage items.
Please look closely at the pictures as they are an important part of our description.
