Story

Turquoise has been revered as the 'Sky Stone' for over 7,000 years, spanning from the burial masks of Egyptian Pharaohs to the sacred jewelry of the Navajo and Zuni peoples.

Maker / Origin

While the specific maker is unidentified, this piece reflects the skilled lapidary traditions of the mid-to-late 20th century.

Condition & Value

The strand appears to be in excellent vintage condition with the cord tension remaining tight. There is no visible fraying at the knots, which is the primary concern for necklaces of this age. Well-preserved cordage maintains the item's wearable value.
