Included in this lot is a pair of Navajo Native America Mojave turquoise and sterling silver earrings. Mojave Turquoise is primarily found in the Kingman mine located in the heart of Kingman, Arizona. This mine is famous for its stabilized turquoise, which is turquoise that has been enhanced with epoxy that deepens the natural color of the stone. This process also involves a hydraulic press, which assembles turquoise nuggets by introducing a bronze metal matrix. Mojave turquoise is among these stabilized turquoise stones and is said to be the only stone available that features a real metal matrix and real Arizona turquoise. These beautiful earrings feature a polished triangular cut cabochon of Mojave turquoise. This stunning turquoise showcases a fantastic array of colors ranging from deep purples to light baby blues. The stabilization of this turquoise incorporates the copper vein matrix. The cabochon is placed in a shadow box setting. The earrings measure 1 ¾” x ¾”.
