Lee Begay, Tufa Cast Ring, Yei' Mask, Sterling Silver, Navajo Handmade, 6 1/2

Description

Many handmade works of Lee Begay's are culturally inspired works. Every winter the Yei' be Chei' ceremonies begin. The dancers where masks, and those masks have different meanings, during the ceremonies where they chant all night. Lee turns on of those masks into this fascinating ring. You will find it filled with many different carved designs. Lee makes the ring from carving the design into tufa stone and then pouring silver in the carving. The combination of shiny and unpolished sterling silver really brings out the character and detail of the piece.
