This fine ring features a beautiful natural turquoise from the Castle Dome mine located in southwest Arizona. Castle Dome turquoise is also known as Pinto Valley from the large copper claims located in the valley. The turquoise was a by product of the copper mining. During the 1970s it was the second largest producer in Arizona before it played out. It is located 5 miles west of Miami, Arizona and 20 miles east of the famous Sleeping Beauty turquoise mine. Much of the Zuni jewelry formed the 1960- 70 era contained this turquoise. The exceptional natural specimen in this fine ring is the signature look of the claim. The stone is high domed with a gorgeous sky blue hue with hints of glistening silver pyrite. Terry has set the gem in a hand chiseled bezel surrounded in twist wire. A large gleaming border creates a shadowbox to highlight the gem. Fine deeply stamped scallops appear on the shank on either side.
Ring Size: 10-1/2 Stone Size: 15/16 in. x 11/16 in. This piece can be re-sized upon request for an additional $25.00 fee.
