This was marketed as turquoise and I think it’s a fairly new piece (so I don’t think it has darkened with age and body oils yet). It’s such a pretty deep green with a sandy and light colored matrix. What kind of turquoise do you think this is, if it is indeed turquoise?
Do you think this could be emerald valley?
That sure is a pretty, rich green. I’ll be curious to see what everyone thinks.
This is an old unmarked cluster ring that was sold to me as Emerald Valley. Yakama Reservation in Washington State.
@Om2bliss the stones really do look a lot alike! Pretty ring! I love those old cluster rings…so classic. Hope I get one someday. 
They really kind do - color & something about the cracks and crevices - I got the ring from the Yakama reservation and I feel pretty good about their info.
My first thought was a variscite, if you are going to try to match it to a turquoise I would think Pilot makes the most sense.
Thanks @Jason! It does look a lot like that pilot mountain. I wasn’t really feeling variscite other than for the deep green color; otherwise it does look more to me like some form of turquoise.
I appreciate your expertise here!
