This is a striking one-of-a-kind handmade necklace featuring a beautifully detailed hand-carved Turquoise Zuni-style bear. The carving has wonderful character, with natural tan/brown matrix running through the vivid blue-green turquoise. Surprisingly dainty and light weight, I paired the carving with polished Turquoise tube beads and luminous aqua-blue Ethiopian Opal beads that flash shades of aqua and blue in the light. Sterling silver beads and finding add bright finishing contrast. The natural color variations and matrix are part of the turquoise itself and make this carving completely unique. Handmade by Rhonda's Rocks and Things.
