About The Thirty Four Stone Turquoise Cluster Ring

This is a beautifully crafted ring of sterling silver set with a total of 34 very high quality natural turquoise cabochons. The material is from Nevada and probably out of the Lone Mountain maine--very high grade and very hard to cut making this piece ofjewelry even that much more remarkable.

The design is dramatic and yet very fine. Its overall face is composed of so many small elements giving it a lacey appearance. It displays exquisitely on the hand regardless of what finger it dresses as an accent of remarkable hue. It is tasteful and earthy, serving to compliment its lucky owner's hand. Instead of becoming a gaudy attraction, it quietly sets a peaceful tone with its dusky blue hues. This is an excellent first impression, a special occasion piece !
