An early Zuni rainbow man bracelet. Inlaid with deeply saturated turquoise, Mediterranean coral, mother of pearl, and jet. His body is slender, and it has a double silver outer border from the skirt to the armpit. The coral arrangement flows upward to his arms. To match the superb lapidary detail. The silver work is just right. Heavy and deeply hand-stamped, and flowing with his swaying body. Three silver bars from marks were hand-wrought, tapering to the gap edges. The patina is deeply contrasting with the colors of gemstones. A museum-quality bracelet with few comparisons. No marks, old pawn.
