Lee Charley Butterfly Ring

Presenting the third and final drop of the Polo Ralph Lauren x Naiomi Glasses collection, the inaugural collaboration of the Ralph Lauren Artist in Residence program, reflecting our evolved design approach with the artisans and communities that inspire us. The Polo Ralph Lauren x Naiomi Glasses collection honors Navajo heritage and centuries-old traditions. Naiomi Glasses is a seventh-generation Diné (Navajo) textile artist and designer whose work reflects the beauty of her Indigenous culture. Her passion for jewelry started during visits to local trading posts with her late grandmother, Nellie Glasses, and brother, Tyler Glasses Jr., both notable and respected textile artists. It was during these excursions that Naiomi and Tyler first discovered many of the artists whose designs are featured in this collection, including Lee Charley, a fine jeweler renowned for his ultraclean stampwork with a mirror-polish finish and whimsical creations inspired by nature. Naiomi was drawn to Lee’s adjustable butterfly ring, which embodies the strong family ties inherent in Navajo silversmithing and is finely crafted with sterling silver and Sleeping Beauty turquoise.
