Well known Zuni Tribe artist Larry Loretto has crafted this inlay bracelet. Done in his signature style of using strips of square wire soldered together as a base and using round wire on the edges giving the bracelet a smooth outside edge. In doing this a channel is created in which the orange spiny oyster shell is inlayed into. Measuring approximately 1/4" in width with over 12 individual stones throughout the bracelet.
Measrements: 5-1/4" inside with 1" opening
*this bracelet will fit wrist sizes of 6" to 6-1/4" and is not adjustable
Artist: Larry Loretto learned by both watching and also some guidance from his brother-in-law, Johnny Coonsis. In fact there is some resemblance in Larry’s earlier designs with those of his mentor. Larry’s earlier designs were also similar, but easily distinguishable from, to those of Troy Natachu. Over the past fifteen years, Larry has been quite productive as the demand for his designs has grown. Larry lives in Zuni and is currently trying to interest his 20 year old son, Shane, to work with him.
