Vintage 1960s Zuni Morenci turquoise two-stone climber ring
A remarkable turquoise and silver climber ring set with two exquisite examples of Morenci turquoise. Located in Southeastern Arizona, the Morenci turquoise mine produced specimens of a deep blue color with a heavy pyrite matrix. Morenci turquoise is highly sought after and rare to find at market, since turquoise is no longer mined there. The two turquoise stones in this ring are phenomenally large (1 1/8 x 1" and 1 1/8 x 3.4") with spiderwebbing and large inclusions of iron pyrite. The turquoise ranges in color from a light Robin's Egg blue to a deep and classic teal blue. The ring measures 3" top to bottom with silversmith work that follows the contours of the stones in coiled, etched and accented trim. Solid closed back. An outstanding piece.
