Rings

A natural turquoise ring is the classic first piece of Native American jewelry — and often the beginning of a collection. The rings here are handmade in sterling silver by verified Navajo and Hopi artists: hand-stamped bands, hand-cut bezels and natural stones chosen by the artist, not a factory. No two are alike, because no two natural turquoise stones are alike.

Each listing names the artist and tribal affiliation and gives the ring size, the dimensions of the top setting and the stone details, so you can buy with confidence. Many rings can be resized by the artist for an additional fee — resizing details are stated on each product page where the artist offers it.

If rings are your entry point, the rest of the tradition is close by: matching cuff bracelets and necklaces and pendants, all handmade and artist-verified. To learn about the artists' communities and their distinct styles, see the tribes of Arizona in our education library.
