This yellow gold ring is set with an impressive, cabochon-cut turquoise boulder.
What once was regarded as a common byproduct of copper mining is now a rather scarce gem. Typically found in or near copper mines, turquoise from different regions differs in color, quality, character, and rarity.
This particular specimen was left in its original shape, with only a buffed top. It has a beautiful bright blue colour and an impressive black matrix.
