A vintage Southwestern sterling silver cigar band ring with colorful geometric gemstone tiles.
This bold sterling silver band features six rectangular cabochons set in a clean row across the front, including turquoise, red jasper, black onyx, and mother of pearl. The multicolor inlay gives the ring a strong Southwestern look, while the softly tapering cigar band shape makes it comfortable and wearable.
The interior is signed D Y and marked sterling, with an additional unidentified symbol or mark. The maker has not been identified, so the ring is described as Southwestern and Zuni-inspired rather than attributed to a specific artist or tribe.
