Enrique Ledesma was noted for his masterful blending stone with silver,
and this bold geometric bracelet exemplifies his genius. Mottled,
richly-colored carved and polished bold hunks of amethyst quartz
join seamlessly with heavily patinated sterling silver caps in sculptural
harmony. When worn, the effect is captivating as the light plays
off polished stone, old silver and glimpses of the wrist underneath.
