Aaron Anderson: Tufa Cast Continuous Square Maze Cuff
Be sure to add this striking sterling silver cuff by award-winning Navajo artist Aaron Anderson to your jewelry collection before it's gone. Renowned for his traditional Diné jewelry, Anderson utilizes the traditional tufa stone casting technique to create this silver cuff with a continuous maze pattern from one end to the other.
The Art of the Tufa Cast
What makes this cuff truly one of a kind is its origin. Unlike mass-produced Native American jewelry, this silver cuff began as a hand-carved block of tufa, a porous volcanic stone. Because the intense heat of molten silver often cracks the fragile tufa stone, the mold is typically destroyed after a single pour, making designs carved into the stone good for only one jewelry piece being produced.
