This natural Bamboo Mountain turquoise cabochon was hand cut from material sourced from Hubei Province in central China. Bamboo Mountain turquoise is known for its broad, earthy palette, which can include vivid blue, blue-green, mossy green, tan and brown, often divided by bold black or brown matrix and fine web patterns. Its combination of color and matrix makes this Chinese turquoise especially appealing for silversmithing, jewelry making or a one-of-a-kind setting.

Natural and untreated, and backed for additional stability while setting and wearing.

As always, each stone is cut by hand here in my studio in the mountains of Wyoming.
