Product Description
Classic and wearable, this wide sterling silver cuff by Navajo artist, Edison Cummings, has precise stamp work. The bracelet measures 2-1/2″ wide. The inside measurement is 5-3/4″ with a 1″ opening.
Born in 1962, Edison studied at the Institute of American Indian Art – first painting, then sculpture – and at Arizona State University – where he discovered metalsmithing during his degree in education. In addition to his penchant for raised metal forms, since 2005 he has experimented with patterns in wood and stone: “Although these appear to be Loloma inspired, Cummings’ training first as a silversmith led him to embellish the stone and woodwork with inset bezel-set stones. This feature distinguishes his work from that of other jewelers,” says Diana Pardue in Contemporary Southwestern Jewelry.
