This stunning Sonoran turquoise and sterling silver cuff is yet another a remarkable creation by Navajo jeweler Elvira Bill. This exquisite cuff effortlessly captures the essence of Southwestern elegance, combining the natural beauty of Sonoran Turquoise with skillful artistry. 

 

The exterior sterling silver has been hand-stamped with intricate patterns which beautifully frame a captivating Sonoran turquoise gemstone. Prized for its luscious greens, blues, and gold striations, Sonoran turquoise is a unique gemstone found only in Northwestern Mexico. 

 

The adjustable design ensures a comfortable fit for various wrist sizes, while the solid sterling silver construction guarantees durability and longevity. This cuff is not just a stylish accessory; it is a wearable piece of art. 

 

Hailing from the Campitos mine situated near Cananea, Sonora, Mexico, Sonoran turquoise stands out due to its distinctive mining process. Unlike traditional turquoise veins, this variety is frequently discovered as nuggets within clay deposits. In operation since the 1980s, the mine yields exquisite Sonoran turquoise, characterized by vivid green hues complemented by brown matrix, occasionally accented with traces of pyrite to infuse a captivating sparkle.
