Sky Blue Old Stock Nevada Turquoise Pendant – Sterling Silver | Ben Davis Cabochon

Own history! This turquoise came from the collection of a retired Nevada miner, making it genuine old-stock material that is becoming increasingly difficult to find today.

Old-stock Nevada turquoise forms when copper-rich groundwater moves through porous rock, slowly depositing the mineral in fractures and pockets. The result is the vibrant sky-blue color seen in this stone, a classic turquoise hue that has made Nevada deposits famous among collectors and jewelers for generations.

The cabochon was carefully cut and polished by lapidary artist Ben Davis, who shaped the stone to showcase its bold color and smooth natural surface. The stone is set in solid .925 sterling silver, creating a timeless pendant that allows the turquoise to stand out as the centerpiece.
