Darlene Begay, Ring, Spiny Oyster Shell, Sterling Silver, Navajo Handmade, 11"

This delightful Navajo ring by artist Darlene Begay is handcrafted in the form of a butterfly, a symbol of beauty and transformation. The wings are inlaid with vibrant spiny oyster shell cabochons, showcasing warm orange and coral hues with natural striations that bring life and movement to the piece. Sterling silver accents, including twisted rope details and polished silver drops, highlight the design and add depth to the composition. The contrast between the glowing shell and gleaming silver creates a striking balance of color and texture. Begay’s artistry blends traditional Navajo silversmithing techniques with a playful, nature-inspired design. Both elegant and bold, this ring makes a wonderful statement accessory.
