Memorable gifts arrive in every size package, at every price point and the same is true of turquoise gifts.
Collectors & Turquoise Jewelry
Turquoise collectors pick their jewelry very carefully, watching for a mine they don’t yet have a piece of, something to add to their North American Turquoise collection, something exotic or rare, or another piece of a long-time favorite stone or artist. Rare and collectible turquoise comes at a higher price point, but many turquoise mines produce stone that is accessible and part of every collection. The bottom line with collecting turquoise is to pick what speaks to your heart, so it is sure to be a genuine treasure for generations to come.

Native American silversmiths of New Mexico often work in traditional styles handed down to them from previous generations of silversmiths. The patterns, styles & techniques are learned and carefully mastered from a young age. Cluster jewelry, squash blossom necklaces and row cuffs are just a few of the styles of Native American jewelry that have persevered over time and are sought after as symbols of tradition and culture in the Southwest.
