I studied under Roosevelt “Rip” Woods, a well-known Arizona artist, where I designed and serigraphed covers for my high school’s concert and awards banquet programs. While studying with Rip I began designing and making jewelry. In the late 1950’s while working in Scottsdale at Glass Arts Studio in the Lloyd Kiva Fifth Avenue Shops where I learned the art of leaded glass, I continued creating in silver. My designs were influenced by the Hopi silversmith, Charles Loloma, whose studio was next to Glass Arts. In the early 1970’s I opened Eric Drake Designs, a jewelry store and studio on the board walk at Pinnacle Peak Patio – a restaurant and shops in North Scottsdale. Lew Davis, a very good friend and accomplished Arizona artist, encouraged me to move my studio to Yares Art Gallery in Old Town, Scottsdale. Today my studio is in Tonto, Basin, Arizona where I design and work in silver with turquoise and semi-precious gems.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaterials: Sterling Silver, Natural Bisbee Turquoise\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1 1\/4\" Face Width at center\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e4 3\/4\" of Silver, Plus a 1 1\/4\" Opening\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e6\" Total, Including Opening - Fits Small Wrist\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bracelet can be adjusted slightly.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eClick \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca title=\"Sizing Guide\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pueblodirect.com\/pages\/sizing-guide\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e to view our bracelet sizing guide.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Eric Drake","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45163368710339,"sku":"042326-JB-S443","price":695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1356\/7109\/files\/old_pawn_bracelet_042026007_7fe88133-0e59-41d0-8705-b4e664aa1809.jpg?v=1776968416","url":"https:\/\/www.pueblodirect.com\/products\/vintage-southwest-sterling-silver-bisbee-turquoise-cuff-bracelet","provider":"PuebloDirect.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
