Oval Kingman Turquoise Channel Inlay Ring by Wilbert Gray

Handmade by Navajo silversmith Wilbert Gray, this bold sterling silver ring showcases his signature precision channel inlay work. The oval face is set with hand-cut pieces of Kingman Turquoise, prized for its vivid sky-blue color and warm golden matrix. Each stone is shaped to fit perfectly within slim sterling silver channels, creating a seamless geometric mosaic that’s both contemporary and deeply rooted in Southwest tradition.

Gray’s craftsmanship is recognized among collectors for its clean lines, substantial weight, and refined inlay work. Channel inlay is a demanding process—every stone must be carved to exact dimensions, then polished flush so the surface reads as one continuous design. This ring is an outstanding example of that artistry.

The band is smooth, tapered, and highly polished for comfortable everyday wear, with Gray’s hallmark stamped inside. A strong, statement piece with the timeless character of natural Kingman Turquoise.
