{"product_id":"etsy-1767395712","title":"Vintage Fred Harvey Era Native American Turquoise Cuff, 11 Stone Sterling Silver Bracelet","description":"Step back in time and wear a piece of the Frontier...\n\nSet within the silver are stones of green turquoise, each one unique, as if they’ve absorbed the very essence of the earth from which they were born. The matrix, rich with ochres and browns, speaks of the land’s rugged beauty—a reminder that there is strength in imperfections.\n\nThis Fred Harvey trading post souvenir cuff is a reminder of the lands where the earth meets the sky, where time stands still, and where the spirit of adventure is etched into the stones themselves. It offers eleven oval natural turquoise stones with a stamped band of crossed arrows and the thunderbird symbol for that touch of Southwestern mystique.\n\nMEASUREMENTS:\nInside Circumference: 5 1\/2\"\nGap: 7\/8\"\nTotal Circumference: 6 3\/8\" (medium)\nCenter Front Width: 3\/4\"\nStone size: 1\/2\" x 1\/4\" approximate\nWeight: 36 grams\nHallmark\/s:  none\n\nThis cuff is very slightly adjustable, not recommended\n\nTURQUOISE FRONTIER COLLECTION NOTE\nThe Legacy of Fred Harvey - The Fred Harvey Era (approximately 1890–1940) represents one of the most influential periods in the history of Native American jewelry. During this time, the Fred Harvey Company operated hotels, restaurants, and gift shops along the Santa Fe Railway, introducing travelers from across America to the artistry of the Southwest.\n\nAs tourism grew, Navajo, Zuni, Hopi, and other Native American silversmiths created jewelry that reflected traditional craftsmanship while appealing to visitors exploring the region. Characterized by hand-stamped sterling or coin silver, natural turquoise, and iconic Southwestern motifs such as thunderbirds, arrows, crosses, whirling logs, and desert flora, these pieces became enduring symbols of the American West.\n\nToday, authentic Fred Harvey Era jewelry is highly sought after for its historical significance, handcrafted construction, and timeless design. Each piece reflects a unique moment when Native American artistry became recognized and appreciated by a national audience, helping to preserve traditional silversmithing techniques for future generations.\n\nTHE BEST WAY TO GET A GOOD FIT is to measure a cuff bracelet you already have that fits you well and look for a bracelet with those dimensions. The total inside circumference is the inside circumference of the bracelet from end to end plus the gap (the distance between the ends).\nIf you don't have a cuff bracelet to use for comparison, then measure your wrist where you want to wear the bracelet. There are several ways to do this:\n\n1. Use a cloth tape measure to measure around your wrist where you will wear the bracelet. Use this measurement as your wrist size which corresponds to Total Inside Circumference above. \n\nOR\n\n2. Wrap a piece of string (or ribbon) around your wrist where you will wear the bracelet. Make a mark on the string where the end meets the rest of the string. Remove the string and lay it on a ruler. Use this measurement as your wrist size which corresponds to Total Inside\n\nBaby\/Child - Fits up to a 4 1\/4\" wrist\nYouth\/Teen - Fits a 4 3\/8\" to a 5 1\/4 wrist\nSmall - Fits a 5 3\/8\" wrist to 6 1\/4\" wrist\nMedium - Fits from a 6 3\/8\" to a 7 1\/4\" wrist\nLarge - Fits from a 7 3\/8\" to an 8\" wrist \nExtra Large - Fits over 8\" wrist\n\nPlease Note:\nVintage jewelry has lived a previous life and will often display signs of age, including light wear, natural patina, minor surface scratches, or slight irregularities.
