Boulder Turquoise
Boulder turquoise, or sometimes called Royston Ribbon comes from the Royston District Range in Nevada, which has been an important source of Turquoise since prehistoric time and this area produces some of the most spectacular and sought after high grade Turquoise in the world. Boulder Turquoise is actually what the miners call "saw rock". The hard rock is cut to study the vein for colour, quality, size of formation and usability. Only recently have Navajo silversmiths added this beautiful stone to the Southwestern American Indian Jewellery market. Boulder Turquoise is known for both its beauty and rarity.
