About The Nevada Green Turquoise Cuff

Each of 27 hand-cut natural Nevada green turquoise stones grace the front and sides of this bracelet. Marked "Sterling" as well as VG on the cuff's interior, its stones are likely from any of these mines:  King Monassa, Green Tree, old Fox or Emerald Valley.

Notice the depth of the stampwork adorning the cuff's interior as well as the embellishment defining its exterior. Each of the round bezels cups each stone with specificity.
