This sterling silver statement necklace features a unique square-cut Royston Ribbon turquoise paired with a neon apatite accent stone. The turquoise is a striking example of Royston Ribbon, known for its distinctive streaks or "ribbons" of vibrant turquoise running through a golden-brown or beige matrix. Sourced from the Royston mining district near Tonopah, Nevada, this variety of turquoise is prized for its high-quality stones and rich, earthy hues that make each piece one of a kind. Royston Ribbon turquoise has become a favorite among collectors and jewelry artisans due to its striking contrast and rarity, as it is hand-mined in small batches.
The pendant is embellished with a hand-stamped design that brings a touch of classic southwestern elegance, perfectly complementing the natural beauty of the stones. The necklace is a statement piece that seamlessly combines bold gemstones with traditional silverwork.
