The superior properties of the Kingman turquoise set the standard for quality worldwide, as all turquoise traded is measured against Kingman turquoise as world currencies are measured against the dollar.Kingman Turquoise is known for its beautiful pure turquoise colors ranging from bluish green to sky blue. The many variants of green and blue turquoise are known for the finest matrix patterns of pure turquoise with often little to no markings, webbing, or matrix, making it very valuable and sought after. Kingman Turquoise is mined from the copper rich rock formations of the Kingman Turquoise Mine in Kingman Arizona, which lies along prehistoric Native American trade routes. Natural Kingman Green Turquoise captures the magic and mystery of the ancient Southwest.Turquoise is known to be the purification stone of peace and serenity, a gentle guiding light that inspires self-care and self-confidence.Spiny oyster has been commonly used in Native American jewelry for thousands of years. It's multi color varieties are native to the America's with individual colors being only available from certain areas. The tribal tradesmen from up and down the coasts often traded with spiny oyster as a form of currency. It is called the gemstone of the peace because it joined multitudes of native American peoples intertwined in trade routes from all over the Americas together in peaceful transactions of goods. It is said that the combination of all the spiny oyster colors adorned together encompasses mind and spirit while bringing peace and unity.These beautiful inspired Navajo Pearls are sterling silver beads known traditionally made by Native American Navajo (Diné) silversmiths. Native American tribes were introduced to the technique of silversmithing by Spanish explorers in the late 1500's. They then added this newly found craftsmanship to their traditional methods of bead making, leading to what we continue to admire today as sterling silver Navajo desert pearls.What set the Navajo Pearls apart from other beads is the light oxidized finish to the beads that lends character and depth to the finished piece. They are often paired with gemstones or mixed with multiple sizes and shapes to create beautiful patterns from simple to complex.Packaging - comes in gift box with optional personalized note.* This necklace is completely handmade and constructed in my studio.* All pieces purchased come ready for gift-giving*Shipping on this item is within 3 days of receiving payment.*Standard Shipping to U.S. Addresses:Orders are shipped via USPS 1st class mail and per USPS guidelines, domestic delivery times range between 2-9 days, but in most cases 2-4 business days to the contiguous 48 states.*Standard Shipping to International Addresses:Orders are shipped via USPS 1st class international mail and per USPS guidelines, delivery times range between 10-21 business days.Thank you!Kingman Turquoise & Orange Spiny Oyster Necklace, Large Round Colorful Gemstone Jewelry, Womens Unusual Handmade Unique Fashion Statement
