Small tear drop shaped pendant-ANA 1523

This small pendant is set in solid sterling silver with a single piece of Golden Hills turquoise. The beautiful stone is mounted high in the setting allowing the pendant to have a dramatic look. Measuring about the size of a quarter, it is perfect for a 18" chain (included). The bail is large enough to accommodate up to a 5mm necklace. NAVAJO HANDCRAFTED PENDANT BY ARTIST THOMAS FRANCISCO GOLDEN HILLS TURQUOISE: In the Russian hills of Kazakhstan sits the GOLDEN HILLS mine. The Turquoise is only mined in the winter months during the freezing cold and snow as rains flood the mine during the summer. The location of the mine is remote and difficult to bring equipment in and out of. It is the only Turquoise known to have the unique coloring of bright blue with a Lavender undertone.
