KETOHS, PRONOUNCED: (GAY-TOHS)
The history of the ketoh goes back to Navajo archers and the bands they wore to protect their forearms from the snap of their bowstrings. These stiff leather guards were eventually embellished by Navajo silversmiths with conchos, silver buttons and turquoise stones. They ceased to be functional archery gear and instead became worn as decorative jewelry. Old ketohs are highly sought after by collectors.
This statement-sized vintage ketoh is a wide leather cuff featuring a cast sterling silver X-framed design adorned with five blue turquoise cabochons set in serrated bezels, flanked on either side by four sterling silver fluted conchos.
