Native American Kingman Turquoise 3 Stone necklace

The rich and characteristically sky blue Kingman turquoise found here was taken from a private collection and given to Esther Wood to create this one-of-a-kind beauty. Extra large natural stones of this quality are very rarely found today, and possessing a necklace of this stature is akin to owning a piece of American history. The Kingman mine of Arizona is a classic American mine, and the consistently colored hue of its turquoise is highly prized. Esther's ability to accentuate the stones with his impeccable talent as a silversmith is certainly at work, here. We have recently learned that Esther has retired as a silversmith and jewelry maker, making her pieces that much more collectible. The sterling silver bezels on all three Kingman stones follow their respective contours, and are each given twisted wire adornment along with matching double drop-beads of silver for dramatic effect. The sterling silver chain is completely handmade, link by link, and is the perfect way to finish and display this masterpiece. Inscribed by Esther.
