Silver Spiny Oyster Cuff
By Navajo artist Albert Cleveland. The spiny oyster sets have wonderful orange and yellow matrix. The stamped designs are both intricate and detailed, the scalloped edges add elegant appeal. It is hallmarked "AC" which is the hallmark for Albert Cleveland. Albert Cleveland was born in 1954 and raised on the Navajo reservation in the Navajo community of Haystack, which lies in the shadow of Mt. Taylor. He does traditional silver smithing in a 1940's curio style. He melts the silver scrap down and shapes it into flat plates by rolling the ingots down by hand. The cuff is a larger size and weighs 76 grams.
