Melvin Chee, Bracelet, Coral, Sterling Silver, Zuni Handmade, 5 1/4"
Description
This striking bracelet by Zuni artist Melvin Chee features the timeless beauty of natural red coral set in sterling silver. Seven hand-cut coral cabochons are arranged in a bold row, each framed in fine bezels and accented with delicate silver drops. The stones’ rich red hue contrasts beautifully against the cool silver, creating a design that is both vibrant and elegant. Surrounding the coral, hand-twisted silver rope and leaf-like details showcase Chee’s meticulous craftsmanship and traditional Zuni style. The bracelet’s open silverwork gives it balance and sophistication, making it comfortable to wear while maintaining its striking presence. Both a statement piece and a celebration of heritage, this bracelet reflects the artistry and cultural depth of Zuni silversmithing.
