Patrick Yazzie Navajo Sterling Silver and Black Onyx Cuff Bracelet

This is a contemporary Navajo sterling silver cuff bracelet handcrafted by the renowned artist Patrick Yazzie. The piece features a distinctive tiered or double-band construction, where a solid upper band is decorated with complex hand-stamped geometric triangular patterns, providing a sharp contrast to the lower band. Set along the front of the bracelet are five round, cabochon-cut black onyx stones, each secured within a traditional serrated sterling silver bezel. The stones exhibit a deep, uniform black luster with no visible inclusions. The overall construction is robust, indicative of high-quality Southwestern silversmithing techniques used by the Yazzie family. While the hallmarks are not directly visible in the image, the style is consistent with Patrick Yazzie's portfolio, typically featuring a 'P. Yazzie' and 'Sterling' stamp. The metal displays a natural aged patina with slight superficial scratches consistent with gentle use, but remains in overall excellent condition with no missing stones or significant structural warping. The proportions suggest a standard medium-sized cuff for adult wear, representing a refined example of modern Native American jewelry dating likely from the late 20th to early 21st century.
