Inlaid Turquoise Handcrafted Southwestern Sterling Silver Ring

“Greetings from staging near The Eddy Hotel in Tucson, Arizona! I’m an inlaid turquoise handcrafted Southwestern sterling silver ring, size 8.5 (see photo of mandrel). Turquoise was known as ‘mefkat,’ by ancient Egyptians to mean joy & delight. Metaphysically it is considered a stone to guarantee health, good fortune, & protection from evil & is also designated as one of the birthstones for December. Compositionally, copper-rich groundwater seeps underground to react with minerals containing phosphorus & aluminum.”
