Completely elegant, highly rare, hand-polished, oval, sky blue turquoise gemstones from the Sleeping Beauty Mine, separated by 18K gold keishi beads, and finished with a hand-wrought, 24K gold-plate, hook clasp. Length 17½ inches. 

The Sleeping Beauty Mine, an Arizona turquoise mine, is known for it s rare blue colors, and now it is permanently closed - therefore these unusual, investment quality blue gems can no longer be mined. These particular shapes and sheen are especially rare because of their slender hand-cutting and flawless hand-buffing.

This necklace can only increase in value, as the stones will never again be mined, and this rare, delicate cut adds to its value and meaning. (Companion earrings also available separately.) 

Materials: gold, pearls, Sleeping Beauty turquoise
