Carico Lake Turquoise Ring

Carico Lake Turquoise by D. Cotton.

Ring is a size 5 and measures roughly by 2 inches long and 1 1/8 wide. Sterling Silver and stamped.

Carico Lake turquoise is named after the location of its mines on a dried up lake bed in a high, cool area of Lander County, Nevada. Its clear, iridescent, spring green color is due to its zinc content and is highly unique and collectible. Carico Lake turquoise is also found in a dark blue-green color with a black or brown, spider web matrix.
