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.

Double D Ranch is pleased to offer this vintage ketoh dating back to the early 20th Century. The wide brown leather cuff is adorned with a bold sandcast silver design that boasts a chic turquoise cabochon, set in a simple bezel. A stunning statement cuff.
