I already have the small Tiffany Elsa Peretti turquoise ring, but then I just saw the large one and had to have it too! Here are both side by side.

That is such a treasure! Gorgeous!!!Irresistible 1940s Zuni channel inlay bracelet with natural, gem-grade Blue Gem turquoise. Ahhhh.
Here are a few of my non Native American turquoise pieces! First, sleeping beauty turquoise earrings in gold. Next, a piece of Stormy mountain turquoise in silver. This piece is very glassy and brilliant blue, but photo was taken in a shaded room. Next, sleeping beauty chandelier earrings. Finally, ring, bangle and pendant in yellow gold. I’ve got a few more pieces which I’ll have to dig out.

These beautiful additions to this board, are all so gorgeous! Such amazing examples of blue gem and sleeping beauty turquoise too! There are so many different types of turquoise and it is interpreted in so many ways by the many artisans out there, it’s quite difficult not to purchase more pieces. Especially when most of the desirable signature and well made pieces aren’t mass produced and are highly collectible [emoji4]
Thankyou! You are right, it’s very difficult not to purchase more pieces.....I really have been trying to apply some self control over this lol!
Loving your pics @clairejune! Such beautiful example of different styles of turquoise jewelry!! Your Persian necklace is stunning!!
Thankyou so much! It’s hard to stick to one style with so much beauty in different styles. I’m always taken by departures from what I have. It’s hard to build sets that way, but I circle back around eventually. I am really enjoying seeing your pieces too! Pls keep posting!
Recently, I found this Native American collar necklace....I did not buy it, but the turquoise is astounding. It’s all beautifully inlaid with polished silver rivets, and gorgeous beveled edges. It’s vintage, but Looks very timeless with the wonderful simplicity!
