Once treasured by ancient kings and pharaohs, turquoise was believed to be a sacred piece of the sky. Today, some of the most prized turquoise comes from the American Southwest, where dwindling supplies have made this brilliant blue gemstone increasingly difficult to find.
On a trip to Tucson, fourth-generation turquoise traders told us that fewer than 5% of turquoise mined worldwide is suitable for jewelry, and many Southwest mines have closed. We secured a limited supply of Arizona turquoise for our Sedona Turquoise Collection. Each vibrant, stabilized cabochon features a one-of-a-kind matrix framed by intricate Bali metalwork. Supplies are limited, so don’t miss your chance to own this treasured piece of the Southwest.
