Cuff, Turquoise, 5 Stone, Natural, Hallmark, Vintage ‘70s, 3116

STAR OF THE SHOW

Darryl Becenti left behind some beautiful pieces that represent the outstanding work he created. This cuff is one of those pieces. It is scalloped sterling silver with five natural turquoise stones, the center one being a little bigger than the others. They are outlined with a rope detail and starburst drops between each stone. This cuff will always be the star of the show.
