Ketoh, Stamped, Turquoise, Vintage, 3797 Size:N/S style: Misc286A stunning collectors ketoh! Originally worn to protect a warrior's wrist from the snap of a bowstring, the traditional ketoh or bow guard gets handsomely reinvented. The wide, brown leather cuff is adorned with an intricately ornate, stamped silver shield centered by a turquoise cabochon and is embellished with repouss accents. Along either side of the shield are three matching silver conchos. It truly is a vintage work of art. affiliation: likely
