ABOUT THE STONES:
Golden Hills, more commonly known as Lavender turquoise is a high-grade, naturally untreated turquoise from the Altyn-Tyube mine in Kazakhstan, known for its unique periwinkle-blue color and reddish-brown matrix. Discovered in 2013, it gained quick popularity due to its striking appearance and durability. The stone is rare because it's only mined during the harsh winter months due to summer flooding, making it a coveted gem for collectors and artisans.
A NOTE ON WEAR
I have chosen high quality materials to create a piece of artful jewelry that will last a lifetime. Although crafted with the adventurous spirit in mind, please take care while wearing my pieces as natural stones can be delicate. To prolong the life of your piece, I suggest you remove it while swimming, showering, or during any other rigorous activity.
