I buy this lovely material from my favorite stone dealer whenever she gets a batch in. I'm crazy about it! It's turquoise from Nevada, dug and cut by one particular guy and this pair is mostly matrix with a horizontal vein of turquoise running through it. I've built sterling bezels and added 14kt gold elements such as the gold balls placed at the edge of the turquoise vein on either side and the connection at the bottom and the bale of each pearl. The posts are also 14kt gold for added strength. The silver has been textured and oxidized and all the metal lightly sanded for a nice matte finish which contrasts nicely with the light polish on the tops of the stones.
