The green turquoise cabs in this Sterling Silver and Double Turquoise Ring have an opalescence like opals.  It is as if one could see into the stone, past the face, into its depths.  The green stones are beautiful.  The silverwork surrounding the pair of turquoise cabs form semicircles on the edges and are then separated by silver dots.  Each turquoise cab is surrounded by silver twisted wire.

 

Condition: excellent

Provenance: from the collection of a family from Santa Fe
