Mother Nature is Amazing! The pattern in the stone is called the matrix and it is unique for each stone. Genuine Sonoran Gold Turquoise set in Sterling Silver Pendant. Created by Navajo Artist Artie Lucy Jake. Signed by the artist. 18" Sterling Silver Chain is included.
Sonoran Turquoise, like the White Water Turquoise, originates from the Campitos mine located on the Campitos Mountain outside of Cananea, Sonora, Mexico. This mine has been in production since the 1980's. Campitos turquoise, including the Sonoran Turquoise, is unique in many ways. The most impressive of which is the way it is mined. Most turquoise is mined from veins found in the surrounding stone. Turquoise from the Campitos Mountain is often found in clay deposits as nuggets. Sonoran Turquoise tends to have a brilliant green or blue color with a matrix of brown and traces of pyrite which add a special sparkle to the stones.

It is not the first piece of jewellery I get from Calvin Begay, and I really like all of them. This one is very special, because it is so beautifully made, including all the desert colours in the stones, that wearing it is like carrying a little piece of the desert with me. He is such an artist! Really beautiful. I feel very happy and special when I wear it. Like being transported to a different place, the earth, the sky, desert landscapes...

I’ve purchased many pieces of wearable art from Treasures of the Southwest. The description is always accurate and the pictures are beautiful. This company is a dream to work with and will not disappoint!
