Courtland-Gleeson Turquoise Solitaire Ring | Sterling Silver | Vintage c.1970's
A Bit About The Piece
Vintage 1970’s sterling silver ring bezel-set with a bright blue turquoise stone from Courtland-Gleeson Mining District, Arizona. The stone has a black webbed matrix with subtle darker blue veining; a crack runs through the top of the stone through what appears to be a matrix plane. This may either be natural or the result of wear.
