    Magnificent Navajo Roie Jaque Sterling Silver & Royston Turquoise Pendant Necklace. Signed.
    Royston Turquoise is named for a district in Nevada consisting of 3 mines; the Bunker Hill, The Oscar Wehrend and the Royal Blue. This stone is from one of these mines and has a large brown matrix with light blues and greens. The iron present during the formation creates these particular green tones.
    Made by Roie Jaque, this magnificent sterling silver pendant features a large pyramid shaped Royston Turquoise set in sterling and framed with a flower leaf sculptural design . The pendant is strung on a sterling silver chain marked 925 Italy and the letters ATI.
    The chain length from end to end is 16" long . Without including the bail, the pendant measures 1 1/4" long and 1 & 1/2" wide . The back of the pendant is marked Roie Jaque, Sterling.
