Southwestern-Style Bone and Stone Inlay Bangle Bracelet

This is a handcrafted bangle bracelet featuring a central core likely made of a rigid, non-metal substrate, potentially resin or wood, finished with a smooth, matte exterior. The primary decorative element consists of an intricate inlay of polished stone and organic material pieces geometric in shape. The color palette of the inlay includes muted teal turquoise, warm coral-orange, and deep obsidian-black square and rectangular segments, separated by larger sections of cream-colored material that appears to be polished bovine bone or ivory substitute based on the grain and texture. The bangle has a narrow, rounded profile with a consistent width. Physically, the item shows signs of light wear consistent with age, including minor surface scuffing and a soft patina on the cream segments. The craftsmanship suggests a 20th-century Southwestern or ethnic-inspired design, possibly 'hippie-chic' or tourist trade jewelry from the 1970s. There are no immediate visible maker's marks or stamps on the interior surface, which is finished in a uniform metallic-gold tone paint or finish to mimic brass. The construction appears durable, though some small gaps between the inlaid stones reflect the handmade nature of the piece rather than factory precision.
