Navajo size 7.5 Sterling and Sleeping Beauty turquoise ring.

If you want a turquoise ring—and you wear a size 7.5—look no further.  This is a beautiful  turquoise stone from the Sleeping Beauty Mine that closed in 2012.  It has just the right amount of black iron-ore matrix.  No fake stuff here.  It is 1.75-inches long, and about an inch-and-one-eighth at the widest point.  The Drifter acquired this beautiful ring from a trader who for many years was the curator of the historic Hubbell Trading Post and Historical Site.  It's definitely a trophy.  It is hallmarked inside the band.  Weight is 18.4-grams, or .645-ounces.  Always complimentary Priority shipping within the U.S.
