Old Stock Nevada Turquoise Pendant – Sterling Silver | Ben Davis

Old-stock Nevada turquoise forms when copper-rich groundwater moves through porous rock, slowly depositing the mineral in fractures and pockets. Over time, this process creates the beautiful mix of blue-green color and dark mineral matrix seen in this stone. The natural speckled pattern reflects the classic character of historic Southwest turquoise deposits.

The cabochon was carefully cut and polished by lapidary artist Ben Davis, who shaped the stone to highlight the natural pattern and color contrast in the matrix. The stone is set in solid .925 sterling silver, creating a timeless pendant that keeps the turquoise the focus.
