    Necklace, Wishbone Naja on Heavy Paperclip Chain Sterling

    Heavy Paperclip chain (14 gauge Sterling) 18" with Wishbone Naja (3 ¼").

    Soft Satin Finish.  Chain has invisible push clasp.

    With probable Paleolithic origins, the inverted crescent form (called Naja by the Navajo) has represented the Phoenician goddess of fertility, Astarte, and is mentioned in the Book of Judges among the “ornaments on camels’ necks.” The Moors – who dominated Spain for eight centuries – adopted the crescent as a horse’s bridle ornament, to protect the horse and rider from “the evil eye”. The Spanish then brought the idea to the Americas in the late 16th century.

    Necklace, Narrow Marquis Rosarita

    This is the real thing - Rosarita from the mountains in Colorado, California and Alaska.

    Are you looking for something Modern and Versatile?

    Rosarita is a very rare material.  

    In the early 1940’s Gold Prices spiked.  As a result of the new high prices some Prospectors revisited the old gold mine areas in places such as Colorado, California, Alaska, etc. 

    These crusty codgers would build brick kilns over open pits and super-heat that gold-bearing ore that still litters the sites.  The return was small and the practice only lasted about 5 years.  The gold would sink to the bottom and the beautiful red gold slag would run off down the mountains, and solidify into boulders of Brilliant Red and Orange, much like Obsidian is formed in a volcanic reaction.

    It is very rare, but we are lucky enough to have a nice collection.  The material is durable and readily polishes to a beautiful shine.  So far we have found no other information on it.  We feel very blessed to have such a lovely earth element to work with.  Rosarita is the only material available in such a true red color.  Some pieces have swirls of orange and these are even more rare. 

    Rosarita was named after a beach in Mexico because of the brilliant color.

    Tyrone Turquoise

    Turquoise mining in the Burro Mountains near Silver City, New Mexico, has been going on since pre-historic times.  The Tyrone mine produced great quantities of hard, deep and bright turquoise as well as pale spring green turquoise.   "Turquoise John" or John Coleman, is credited with the modern unearthing of Turquoise in this area.  It is said he discovered some of the old mining activities while he was on a hunting trip in 1875.  Research resulted in the discovery of the ancient excavations.

    The mine hasn't produced any turquoise since the 80's.  This turquoise is highly collectible.

    Hand Made in Santa Fe, NM. since 1987.
