Pretty purple Mohave turquoise from Arizona. Sterling silver accents and embossed sterling 6” bracelet.
There is only one source for this particular type of Turquoise. That source is from the Kingman mine in Arizona.
Purple Turquoise starts out as stabilized Blue Kingman Turquoise. There is not a vein of purple Turquoise that was discovered at the mine! It is dyed purple and then goes through a Bronze fusion process that creates a shiny bronze color to the matrix. It is then formed, polished and set in necklaces, bracelets, rings, etc.
The Kingman mine is the only mine authorized to process their Turquoise in this manner.
