This is a great Vintage Native American Southwest Southwestern Sterling Silver and Inlaid Coral, Mother of Pearl, Turqouise and Black Onyx Peyote Bird Ring measuring approx. 1" at its widest, and although not marked as to silver content, I will guarantee that this ring is STERLING SILVER. This ring is a size 8 . Very nice collectible piece, and all handmade.
Please remember that anything handmade is not perfect. There may be some flaws, mostly from manufacture, and possibly from age. I will try to note anything that I see as a major flaw.

Please NOTE, I do not clean any of the jewelry as some collectors prefer to leave the original patina on the piece.
Coin Silver is used a lot in the making of jewelry, especially Native American pieces. Coin Silver is 800 parts to 1000, ie 800/1000 pure silver, whereas Sterling Silver is 925 parts to 1000, ie 925/1000 pure silver.
