Vintage Inlay Yei Ring
Product Details
This Zuni Inlay ring features a Yei at the center. The inlay is cracking from age and wear. The piece comes attached to its original pawn ticket. The term "pawn" refers to jewelry that has been pawned to brokers. The practice of pawning jewelry began in the early 1900's when Native Americans and traders would exchange jewelry for food and other necessities. It is still used today and is embedded in the Navajo culture.
Materials: Turquoise and Sterling Silver
Measures: 7/8" x 5/8" mounting with a 3/4" to 1/8" tapered band
