Size 7 1/2, hand made silver ring with abalone eye depicting a sea otter floating on his back holding a salmon.

Sea otter furs are thick and rich. Traders hunted them to the verge of extinction. They are often depicted floating on the backs.

Repoussé is used to shape a piece of metal by working on the reverse of the metal with small hammers to form a raised design on the front.  Chasing is is the opposite technique used to refine the design on the front of the work by hammering to sink the metal.
