Royston Turquoise Squash Blossom Necklace and Earring Set by T. Francisco, Navajo

T. Francisco, a Navajo silversmith, created this monumental squash blossom necklace and matching earring set featuring 14 natural untreated Royston turquoise cabochons hand-cut and set in hand-twisted rope bezels with stamped floral surrounds, suspended from a double-strand of hand-formed Navajo pearls and anchored by a four-stone cluster naja pendant. Royston turquoise from the Royston Mining District in Lander County, Nevada is immediately recognizable by its warm blue-green color and golden-brown iron matrix. Natural untreated turquoise — as opposed to stabilized — develops patina over time, deepening in character with wear. Available exclusively through Turquoise Mustang.
