It doesn't get more bold and vibrant than this! This gorgeous, high grade turquoise lariat necklace and earrings set was handmade by Navajo silversmith Mary Ellen Pease in New Mexico. The natural Riviera turquoise stone. The Riviera turquoise cabochon featured in this set was mined in the Sonoran desert and resembles the Sonoran Rose turquoise mine, though it has distinct differences like the clear blue color and flecks of pyrite. Mary Ellen's attention-to-detail is shown off well in this outstanding set. Created completely with sterling silver, from the handmade link chain to the detailed silverwork in each silver medallion. A collector's dream.
