natural, hand cut Lone Mountain turquoise and silver pendant

When I was cutting this nugget, all I could think of was delicious candy! I cut it high dome style to save as much precious turquoise as possible. Lone Mountain produces a huge array of colors with varying patterns of webbing and is highly sought after by turquoise collectors. The active mine is in Esmeralda County, Nevada. Lone Mountain turquoise is famous for holding its color and vibrancy over time. Sold on an 18” silver ball chain. Everyday jewelry.
