Navajo Turquoise & Sterling Silver Studs

Navajo Turquoise & Sterling Silver Studs

£65.00

These Pretty little Stud Earrings are made with the famous Number 8 Spider-Web Turquoise and are set in Sterling Silver. They are stamped Sterling and signed by the artist and measure 7/8” around.

This particular stone is identified by its unique bright powder blue/green background and distinctive brown spider web matrix. It was discovered in 1925 and mined up until 1976. Since then the mine has been closed and only a previous existing stock pile remains. This turquoise is therefore considered a collectors item because no more is expected to surface once the reserve is gone, making it a perfect collectors piece.
