WELCOME to High Desert Turquoise!
Those selling mass produced Native American jewelry items bought used many times over by the gram and then selling them as new or fake \"vintage\" with grossly misrepresented turquoise are unfortunately conditioning many buyers into believing that high qualityNative American jewelry shouldn\'t cost more than a family trip or two to a fast food restaurant.
Not true. And those who believe this nonsense will end up with a box of poor quality or damaged items with absolutely no investment potential or resale value except for the silver weight. Buyers should aim for quality not quantity, not expect brand new high end Cadillacs for the price of a ten year old used car, and buy from vetted authenticated sellers with proven long term records of integrity.
You get what you pay for even on !
The following may also get me in all kinds of trouble, but it\'s the truth. There are NO new and authentic Sunshine Reeves rings selling anywhere for $50.00 nor even $150.00 None! Zip! Nada! Zero! $50.00 is a thousand miles south of what Sunshine sells them to wholesalers for! So if price is all you\'re interested in, then go buy one of those $50 fakes and help put a talented Native American artist out of business. A manufacturer in a large central New Mexico city is distributing fakes all over the southwest, and they\'re being sold to shops and stores who also sell online. So, once again, if the price seems to be good to be true...
Sunshine is very upset about this but refuses to turn in this manufacturer because he fears antagonizing his distributors and their friends and losing business. What he didn\'t understand about the Pacific Rim debacle is what he doesn\'t understand now: these counterfeiters will eventually put him out of business just as the foreign counterfeiters have done to so many Native American artists.
Let your conscience be your guide.Beware of fake Bisbee turquoise and beware of fake Sunshine Reeves rings selling at fire sale prices.
Sunshine\'s entire family is involved in the high end design business -- his father taught him and his Sunshine\'s late brother, G*a*r*y, and Sunshine\'s half brothers, A*n*d*y and D*a*r*r*e*l C*a*d*m*a*n, and while each artists has their own individual style, they all share an affinity for complex engraved and hand stamped geometric designs. Each has played a major role in re creating and popularizing old Navajo designs of the early 20th century.
