This is another lovely solid silver and turquoise bangle made by Thomas Francisco, the Navajo native American Indian. This one has 13 stones and is gold plated/dipped all over. This bangle is stamped STERLING, and a B, followed an arrow, which says on the Internet is a hallmark Thomas Francisco often uses. I know it is made by Thomas Francisco because it is very similar to the other bangle, which is stamped with his name, and they came from the same deceased estate. This bangle weighs 79 gms, which is just under 3 oz. The widest inside diameter is about 6.2 cms.
