Hello once more,
Wondering turquoise type on this ring. It is really quite beautiful with copper running all through it! The pictures don’t do it justice. Also do you ever find that people take settings that are clearly old and replace the stone with Chinese turquoise?
People sometimes replace stones if damaged or missing or possibly an upgraded type of stone. You have a beautiful stone but not sure it’s Royston.
I think Royston would be a good as guess as any. Old pieces with great stones probably get replaced with a number of different stones, Chinese and American. Lots of times old pieces can be the only place to find those classic American rocks.
Thank you! It was presented as Royston, but something about it made me wonder if it was a Chinese stone that had been replaced into an old setting, Regardless, I enjoy it immensely.
there is a turquoise learning center on Durango Silver site. REALLY great place to learn and find pieces.
