SLEEPING BEAUTY TURQUOISE:

The turquoise in these are from the now closed Sleeping Beauty turquoise mine and once belonged to "Larry Cooley" who had nothing but THE finest turquoise, that happened to be mined long before they started treating turquoise..(You can learn much more about Larry by putting his name into the search bar when you're on my front page) Sleeping Beauty stands apart from the other mines, based on not only it's 'true' turquoise color, but for the fact that it lacks matrix,which we often see in other mines & to some, can look fake for these reasons. This particular turquoise works well when artists are doing cluster work & they want a uniform tone throughout & is one reason why the Zuni Puebloan artists use this turquoise, because the color doesn't shift in tonality when they're doing their own cluster work.It's some of the most vibrant blue turquoise you'd ever witness & has now only increased in value since closing & especially for these premium grades like you'll find in these earrings!

THE EARRINGS:

Designed with top tier/premium stones, these are designed in a very noticeable size hoop & honestly, between the vibrant color and their stately size, makes them that much more fabulous lookin on! They are VERY sophisticated & super classy in style..

Anchored from a small 3/4" size floral top, hangs a 22 stone-channel cluster layout of an alternating pattern of 1 square tile cut and 2 tear drops cuts that face opposite from the other.

Perfect event earrings, wedding earrings, entertainers,(Whether stage or in house) rodeo events, dinners, you name it! But no matter what they're used for,you will bring your elegant style up a few notches!
