VINTAGE NAVAJO HUGE BISBEE TURQUOISE CUSTOM STERLING SILVER RING 6.25:
$159.99

THIS NAVAJO RING FEATURES A TREMENDOUS CUT OF BISBEE TURQUOISE WITH PURPLE MATRIX. THE BISBEE MINE HAD ROCK THAT WAS A PURPLE COLOR AND THE MINE WAS LATER NICKNAMED THE \"LAVENDER\" PIT BY THE EARLIEST MINERS. I BOUGHT THIS STONE AT A CONVENTION IN ARIZONA AFTER A TOUR IN THE MINE AND HAD A NAVAJO ARTISAN PUT IT IN A SETTING BEFORE I LEFT TOWN SO THAT I COULD WEAR IT HOME. THE STONE IS OLD STOCK THAT WAS HOARDED BY A FRIEND OF MINE WHO FREQUENTLY DID CONVENTIONS IN THE SOUTHWEST DURING THE 1980\'S. THE FACE OF THE RING MEASURES 1.5\" BY 1 1/8\" AND THE STONE IS JUST SLIGHTLY SMALLER. THE FRAME IS A CHAIN THAT HOLDS BLACK PATINA WELL AND DOES LITTLE TO DISTRACT FROM THIS GLORIOUS STONE. THE SIZE IS JUST BARELY A SIZE 6.25, BUT PLEASE REFER TO THE SIZER STICK FOR A MORE ACCURATE READING.
