Turquoise Pendant 35

Description

Here is a stone that Jake found at the Royston Turquoise mine in Nevada.  The mine used to allow the public to dig in the tailings for a fee, but has discontinued that practice.  This is a stone that Jake had left over from one of his visits there.  This stone is different from most of the stones that Jake works on, in that he left the stone raw, and just polished the turquoise with a hand tool, for a unique, molten look.  The stone is set with square copper wire framing the back and prongs to hold the stone in place.
