Turquoise Bracelet 4

Description

Jake found the raw rock that produced this beautiful stone on a visit to the Royston Turquoise Mine in Nevada.  The mine owners used to allow the public to dig in the mine tailings and Jake was able to participate twice before the owners closed the mine to the public.  Jake still has some of the raw stones that he found and is able to make some new pieces each year.  This stone has great color and a bit of the dark brown matrix rock for contrast.  It is set in sterling silver with a fancy sterling bail atop a sterling bracelet with coiled round sterling wire adorning each side.
