This is a new necklace that I will be showing for the first time on October 13 in the Village of Yesteryear at the NC State Fair. I bought this beautiful turquoise stone in June, while on a trip to Santa Fe. My New Mexico friend, Andy Brown, got the rough stone at a mine in Royston, Nevada and then cut and polished it. The pendant can also be removed and the open front necklace can be worn by itself (but why would you?!?).
