Hand-forged in sterling silver, the triple-wire shank rises to support a significant, polished cabochon of natural lapis lazuli.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003eThe design is framed by intricate twisted-wire \"rope\" detailing and rhythmic hand-stamping on the shoulder plates—traditional Southwestern motifs that draw the eye into the stone’s celestial depth. With its substantial weight and comfortable, ergonomic fit, this cuff is a grounding anchor for the Arroyo aesthetic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis piece is a fascinating study in regional silversmithing. While its design is identical to documented Navajo-attributed work of the late 20th century, this specific cuff bears a non-standard 'STERLING' stamp without a maker’s mark. In keeping with our commitment to archival accuracy, we classify this as 'Southwestern,' likely produced by an independent bench artisan. The deep indigo lapis, flecked with natural pyrite 'stars,' perfectly captures the expansive high-desert sky that famously captivated Georgia O’Keeffe.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"10\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"10\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli data-path-to-node=\"11,0,0\"\u003e\n\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/b\u003e Southwestern Artisan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-path-to-node=\"11,1,0\"\u003e\n\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/b\u003e Solid Sterling Silver (Hallmarked 'STERLING')\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-path-to-node=\"11,2,0\"\u003e\n\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eGemstone:\u003c\/b\u003e Deep Indigo Lapis Lazuli\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-path-to-node=\"11,3,0\"\u003e\n\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,3,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eEra:\u003c\/b\u003e Circa 1980s-90s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-path-to-node=\"11,4,0\"\u003e\n\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,4,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eSizing:\u003c\/b\u003e Best fits a 6.5\" wrist; triple split-shank provides breathability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-path-to-node=\"11,5,0\"\u003e\n\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,5,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eCondition:\u003c\/b\u003e Excellent vintage condition with a rich, dark patina in the recessed stampwork.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"lovemadgirl","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47163538636985,"sku":null,"price":145.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8102\/0857\/files\/IMG_1220.jpg?v=1778718797","url":"https:\/\/lovemadgirl.com\/products\/the-nocturne-southwestern-lapis-sterling-split-shank-cuff","provider":"lovemadgirl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
