For your consideration is an unsigned silver, turquoise and red coral Navajo slave bracelet. This is from my mother-in-law's estate, most likely purchased for her by her parents (my husband's grandparents) during one of their extensive road trip vacations during the 1940's, 50's and 60's.

I borrowed a young lady to model it.The ring is a size 6-3/4 to 7 (see photo, I didn't force it); the cuff measures about 2-1/2 inches across with a 1-1/2 inch opening. The overall length is 6 inches; from the center of the cuff to the ring band measures about 4-3/4 inches, as pictured.
