Hopi Pueblo Village Cuff
Tribe: Hopi
Item #BR08552
Sterling silver overlay cuff depicting a Hopi Pueblo village scene by silversmith John Coochyumptewa. The design features stepped pueblo village architecture with terraced rooftops and traditional building forms rendered in deeply oxidized recesses that highlight the crisp, hand-cut overlay. Coochyumptewa’s work is known for its balanced composition and fine texturing, and this cuff shows strong attention to detail in the stone-like wall patterns and precise geometric lines. A classic example of Hopi overlay technique, it carries the quiet strength and architectural harmony associated with village imagery.
From the historic Kopavi Collection, this bracelet has never been previously owned.
