Description
Turquoise has been mined from a dried up lake bed in Lander County Nevada for many years and has been called by different names. The most prevalent name now is Carico and has been recently mined in small amounts by new owners. The Cabochons I advertise were purchased from the J.W. Edgar family after the original owner, believed to be Gus Stenich, willed it to them allegedly on a bread wrapper. Apparently he was tired of thieves coming on to his property and stealing his turquoise.The mine produces varying colors from light green and blue to various darker shades of green. The Cabs are highly praised and can be very expensive. Since I am selling out of my old collection I can sell at lower prices than most that is advertised. So, take advantage of these prices as I offer them to the public.
These Cabs were cut and polished in the mid 1970's, have a high polish and are backed with Devcon.
