The inside is clearly marked with “STERLING”. This means that the ring is made of 925 sterling silver. This marking was often used in the USA, Mexico and England, especially in the middle of the 20th century. The ring is decorated with a turquoise mosaic inlay with silver inserts. This is a typical style for silver jewelry from the Southwestern USA (Navajo, Zuni or Hopi style). The mosaic fragments are turquoise chips, often called “crushed turquoise inlay”. The style is inspired by American Indians.
