To the Native people of the desert southwest turquoise was known as the 'sky' stone, symbolizing the eternal heavens, a source of life-giving sun and precious renewing rain. This two strand beaded necklace of richly textured natural blue green to olive green with matrix turquoise showcases the gemstone's mystic beauty. Finished with genuine sterling silver end cones, spring ring clasp and extender chain to adjust fit. Necklace adjusts from 17-1/2" to 21-1/2" L. Proudly made in New Mexico, USA with fair labor. We do our part for the environment by handcrafting our jewelry from recycled genuine sterling silver.
