Navajo artist has handmade this Kingman Cotton Candy Turquoise inlay cuff set in sterling silver.
Kingman Cotton Candy turquoise is a composite material made by the Kingman Turquoise Mine in Arizona, not a naturally occurring stone. It is created by compressing a mix of turquoise, often with other materials like white or pink stones, and sometimes copper or oyster shells, into blocks.This compressed material is then cut and polished into cabochons, similar to how other turquoise is processed. The vibrant colors, including the pink and blue, are often enhanced through dyeing and the addition of bronze veining
