BOLD BEAUTY FROM THE AWARD-WINNING MIKE BIRD ROMERO We instantly fell in love with this vintage cuff from Mike Bird Romero. The wide set cuff featured rounded sterling silver details and a large oval turquoise stone. The matrix of the stone is truly mesmerizing and is accented with large drops. From the bold beauty to the high-quality craftsmanship, this cuff is a true collector. Mike Bird (Romero) (1946-; Ohkay Owingeh, formerly known as San Juan Pueblo).
