ABOUT 'WILD HORSE'

Wild Horse is also known as Crazy Horse Stone or as some others will refer to it as "Appaloosa Stone",, Even though it's called "White Turquoise", it is not.. It is actually white magnesite with brown mottling, just like a painted horse. It also contains hematite.

Wild Horse was first found in the mid-90's near the copper mining city of Globe in Gila County, southeastern Arizona. It's a tough location to get to since you cant drive to the location, so all the material mined from there, has to be hiked out over a mile through rugged terrain.

A PERSONAL WORD:

To be a good designer, takes an excellent eye in knowing what materials can be put together in order to bring out the maximum effect that they have & especially when placed side by side. With that said, the color that these 2 materials have, could not have been more thoughtfully & artistically used..It takes an "impeccable eye" to imagine these 2 different materials together & how they magically make the other come to life!

THE RING:

Made with nothing less than "Wow Factor", this hearty size ring is made with a creamy, ivory color cut of Wild Horse, that is literally huge in size & cut in a trapezoidal shape. The stones shape is what dictated the ring's overall shape & it's color is what dictated what color pearls to use.. White pearls would not have given the same effect as these & it was one of the wisest, most artistic choices to use these really creamy-golden-champagne colored pearls that really work miraculously together with the turquoise & took this ring to a whole new level of excitement!

The naturally formed pearls & turquoise are bezel set soldered atop of a heavy gauge sterling platform, which has some serious weight to it! This ring weighs more than some cuff bracelets or even necklaces, it is that heavy!! It has a mirror polished sterling, which gives it it's contemporary edginess. The shank is done in a bypass style & is adjustable. It's presently sized at a size 10.. For me personally, I find that it's easier for me to adjust up in size, than to go down in size, so if you need me to go up a size (No more than) please let me know at the time of purchasing!! If you need it smaller by a size or so,there are ways to bring it down without the cost of a jeweler(You would have to email me to find out).But you can also bring it to a reputable jeweler to do this for you,since I will only adjust up,not down.
