Description Two diagonal lines of rings. 4 rings in each row. Silver rings that have Hopi designs on them. Color. Hopi overlay jewelry- the design is fretted from a flat blank of nearly pure silver. This is then sweat-soldered to a second blank, thus permitting the design to show in relief. Hopis are expert craftsmen in silver, their jewelry gaining the highest awards wherever shown."
