This cuff exudes elegance with its intricate hand-stamped patterns, showcasing Yazzie's dedication to craftsmanship. The centerpiece is a stunning bright blue Dry Creek turquoise gemstone, which features unique burnt umber and dark red striations.
Located on the Shoshone Indian Reservation near Battle Mountain, Nevada, the Dry Creek Turquoise Mine yields a distinctive natural turquoise stone characterized by its creamy pastel-blue and blue-white shades. Typically accompanied by a matrix in light golden or brown-gray tones, Dry Creek turquoise possesses a unique color that remains unmatched. Most light-colored turquoise is chalky and much too soft to cut, making Dry Creek’s hard gemstones a unique rarity.
