Anybody want to have a go at identifying these beads




Gaspéite or Carico Lake? Over to you.

This is a fascinating superlative Navajo Native American jewelry museum quality very important gaspeite necklace…would be my guess based on similar beads found in image search & comparisons of this shot

Imma guess Carico Lake… not because I have any idea, but just to be different (and to hopefully get some other’s opinions). Can I hedge my bets and say some of both :laughing:?

It’s the blue ones that are throwing me. Also the matrix reminds me of Carico Lake. The small spacer nuggets also look like Carico. There are two necklaces here.

Right. My guess of Carico Lake turquoise was for yours; mostly because there is such a mix of blue in with the green.
