This stunning vintage inlay cuff was made by Laguna-Hopi artist, Duane Maktima. The width tapers from 1 inch at the tips up to 1-3/8 inches in the middle. It features expertly inlaid pieces of Number 8 Turquoise, Lapis Lazuli, Orange Spiny Oyster Shell and Mediterranean Coral. The inside measures 5 inches + 1-1/4 inches for a total inner circumference of 6-1/4 inches. It is seen in the photos just fitting a 6-1/4 inch wrist but not too tight. It is stamped sterling and displays Duane’s mark, a side facing bird figure with a stacked DM next to it.
Duane Maktima is a master Jeweler-Designer-Craftsman who has created a niche/trademark that lives on as heirloom pieces for many distinguished patrons and collectors.

Reminder: This is a pre-owned vintage piece of jewelry that does show evidence of normal wear (all stone inlay is in tact with no cracks or chips). We encourage you to study each photo carefully as they are part of the description. Be sure to ask all questions before purchasing since our vintage jewelry sales are final.
Will it fit? The best way to determine your ideal cuff size is to measure the inside circumference of a favorite cuff you already wear comfortably. The total measurement is tip to tip (inside) + the open gap. This can be accomplished with a soft measuring tape or a length of string that can be subsequently stretched along a ruler for measurement. You can use the same methods around your wrist to determine total size if you don’t have a cuff to use. If you stack bracelets, you may want to go a little larger for wiggle room, but if you only wear one bracelet at a time, a snugger fit is usually okay. If the cuff is very wide, you will generally need a larger size than usual. It comes down to your personal preference and comfort, but the more you collect, the more familiar you become with what works for you.
Actual colors may vary slightly due to lighting, screen display and/or the way color is seen by an individual.
Handcrafted/Handmade work is unique in its design, which means that imperfections will most often be part of an item’s character. Inconsistencies will occur by nature, which makes each piece truly one of a kind; an artist is not a machine.

Old Pawn Sterling Silver, Number 8 Turquoise, Lapis, Spiny Oyster and Coral Inlay Cuff Bracelet by Duane Maktima /Sale price$ 2,149.00
Loved the necklace, but I actually didn’t want the shipping protection. It wouldn’t let me proceed with the purchase online without doing the shipping protection.
I love the color pink any shade the first time I seen this ring on your site I kept coming back to look at it. Then the Labor Day sale came along and my it was my birthday week so I decided to buy it and I love it so much I should have ordered a 7 1/2 because it rolls to much on my finger but it’s ok. It’s beautiful and sparkles anyway the light hits it! So well made!
Thought I was getting rose dahlia with different shaped stones including hearts. Instead all stones are the same and very dark. Don’t love these. But waited too long to return.
Peacock Color variation looks nothing like the photos on the website. Not much blue in mine, lots of white and some green. But they twist when they hang so they don’t face the front where people can see them. I waited too late to return them but I hate them and won’t wear them. Wish there was a way to get credit and buy something else.
I love this bracelet! Everyone that’s seen it makes comments how they love the color and design.
I have bought several pieces from Nizhoni. Not only have I bought for myself, but for my daughters too.
All I can say is I LOVE the quality, workmanship and culture of this company. Every piece I purchase brings me joy, beauty and a feeling of wonder. Furthermore, from Cameron the owner, to Leslie, Marie, Alex Ashley and the whole Nizhoni family, their authenticity and style shines through in every way. I can not say enough good things about them all.
One of my turquoise beads broke in half. I let u all know no replacement was offered. So I glued the bead together. I love this braclet and was disappointed that the beads broke …don’t think I am ordering from your site
The best shopping experience is on the app!! I waitlisted this ring almost 4-months ago and she’s just as beautiful as I remember!!! Beautiful stones with a nice band too!! Well worth the wait!!
Look closely so you don’t miss my beautiful hand harness!! If you’re looking for a unique piece that stands out from others, look no further!! Nizhoni’s pieces are well-made, durable, and great quality!! Whether its a handcrafted piece by a native-American artist or a handmade piece from their in-house designers, you will not be disappointed.
Love my 4th of July jewelry and hat charms! I love mixing my turquoise finds with different stones and the big vs small pieces that I find! Everything is so unique and of nice quality. The live shows are very addicting and fun as well, and the best places to get the best deals first before they go to the website! I always feel like it’s a win no matter what I end up buying!
Absolutely love these earrings!! I was trying to find something to match my necklace for my up coming wedding and once I saw these I loved them! I was not expecting them to go SO well with my necklace it’s like they belong as a set! I am so excited to wear it all together!
I think they are beautifully handcrafted earrings. They feel well-made, not too heavy nor too light. Modern and yet still have that Native American feeling. I purchased them to go with a Kingman turquoise necklace I’ve own for many years. They look wonderful together. Complimentary, not matchy.
One of the most beautiful butterfly necklaces in my collection. I love the extra detailing on the body. Nizhoni pieces are always top tier!!! Return customer many times over!!!
I like the stone selection. For the price you would think the chain lengths would be equal, so the clasp is in the center of the back of the neck not off-center.
I was hesitant to purchase after reading a bunch of negative reviews about quality and return policies but I’m still 100% happy with purchase. Very cute and good quality
I love the Cherry Collection. The quality is outstanding. The design immediately caught my eye. I have three cherry collection pieces and wear them proudly. In two days I’ve received many compliments. I’m a turquoise lover and immediately wanted this collection!!!
