Sterling Silver Wild Horse, Spiny Oyster & Opal Ring - Size 7 #198

Discover this exceptional Native American Ring, handcrafted by Navajo (Diné) artisans, meticulously crafted in Sterling Silver. This remarkable piece showcases genuine Wild Horse, beautifully complemented by Spiny Oyster and Opal. The Wild Horse featured in this piece carries a rich heritage — Mined near Globe, Arizona, from the Wild Horse Canyon area near the Sleeping Beauty mine, this striking stone features a dramatic blend of white magnesite and reddish-brown matrix. Though not a true turquoise, Wild Horse has become a favorite among Native American artists for its bold, earthy contrast and unique patterns that evoke the rugged beauty of the Arizona desert landscape. Complementing the design, the Spiny Oyster adds its own story — Harvested from the warm waters of the Sea of Cortez off Baja California, Mexico. The shell ranges from deep red-orange to purple and has been traded into the Southwest for over a thousand years. Rounding out this composition, the Opal brings additional character — While Australian opals are world-renowned, Native American artists often use opals from Nevada and Mexico. The stone's play of color, caused by light diffracting through silica spheres, creates mesmerizing rainbow effects. Available in size 7. The Navajo Nation spans 27,000 square miles across Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah, making it the largest Native American reservation. Navajo silversmiths learned their craft in the 1860s and developed iconic styles including squash blossom necklaces and concho belts. This piece bears the signature of artist F.A.T, a mark of authenticity and personal craftsmanship. Every piece at Humiovi is one-of-a-kind — once sold, it can never be replicated. Ships from our gallery in Sedona, Arizona.
