This handmade necklace, crafted by the skilled hands of Randall and Etta Endito, is a treasure trove of Kingman Turquoise. Each turquoise cabochon is a splash of color against the textured backdrop of the metal, creating a dance of light and shadow that is both captivating and chic. Each stone's  unique color and matrix, combined with the artistry of the silver-work, makes this piece an heirloom-in-waiting. Worn, it brings a touch of the Southwestern sky to any ensemble, making it as versatile as it is beautiful.

Coveted for its pristine sky-blue shade devoid of veining or web patterns, Sleeping Beauty turquoise holds a cherished place in the realm of sought-after gemstones. Its historical significance has left an indelible mark on the turquoise narrative, especially since the closure of the Arizona Turquoise Mine in 2012. The mine closure, coupled with the gem's innate allure, has led to a surge in its value. With its pure hue and inherent durability, Sleeping Beauty turquoise stands as a beloved choice among global jewelry artisans and creatives.
