Wild Horse (Crazy Horse) Navajo size 10.5 ring, by Benjamin Martinez. SOLD! #2388

SOLD!  Okay, let's start with the fact that Wild Horse is not turquoise!  'Same as used jewelry is not vintage unless it was made in the '60's or prior.  But I digress.  Wild Horse stone is magnesite containing enough hematite to give it that strikingly pleasant color.  It is a fairly recent discovery.  We first encountered it in the '90's.  Unquestionably, it makes for some very attractive jewelry—like the ring above. This is a big ring—big in size and big in the amount of real estate it covers.  It's a whopping 1.75-inches across lengthwise, and 1.25-inches at the widest point.  It has a solid Sterling backplate (as does every ring and pendant we sell!) with the stamp "B," which is the hallmark for Benjamin Martinez.  Weight is 17.5-grams, or .62-ounces.  This is a sharp-looking ring.  Complimentary USPS tracked Priority shipping within the U.S.
