Federico Jimenez- Mid Century Mined- Gorgeous Blue NATURAL Morenci Turquoise- 6 Stone Drop - Contemporary Style Sterling Earrings - 4"
These gorgeous rocks come from the late "Larry Cooley" collection. For those that follow me,you may know the name by now & know the quality that Larry collected, which was nothing less than the best! He had a vast collection of nothing but premium turquoise that were all natural,since his collection was mined long before they started treating turquoise. So these are excellent grade cuts of vivid blue Morenci turquoise,which is getting more & more difficult to find anymore,unless you pay top dollar per carat.(This is reflected in price) These come from a limited collection, so once the stones are used up, they're gone!
Hand picked for their shape & color,these are made in a 6 stone drop, where the cuts graduate in size as they go to the bottom & are laid horizontally to add a tad more width to the design. The color is this ultra gorgeous sky blue color that is a color too die for!!
The stones sit in a simple bezel setting so the focus is placed directly on the stones..They have a very contemporary edginess since they are set in a more contemporary mirror polished finished sterling. There's a good amount of sterling in these, so there is some weight..(See weights below) But I say,if you don't mind a little weight in order to have a fabulous looking earring, then go for it!
They are chic & classy & can be added to a "Finer",more high end southwest jewelry collection..

Please Note:
*****I do not consider myself a 'professional photographer" but I do try to give you photos that are 'realistic",so you're not shocked, nor disappointed when you get the piece. Please go through all photos to see any variation.
To give you close up photos,pictures tend to make the item look much more larger & everything is more magnified than in actuality. Close up's make the item look so large & then you get it in hand & you are let down since the item is much smaller than how they looked in the photos..So to get an accurate idea of how big these are, please either check them out on the ear to get a rough idea (photo 2 & 11) or you can pull out a tape measure & compare to my given measurements
