Inlaid Turquoise Handcrafted Southwestern Sterling Silver Ring

“Greetings from staging at The Rio Bosque in Socorro, Texas! I’m an inlaid turquoise handcrafted Southwestern sterling silver ring, size 9 (see photo of mandrel). Turquoise was known as ‘mefkat,’ by ancient Egyptians to mean joy & delight. Metaphysically it is considered a stone to guarantee health, good fortune, & protection from evil & is also designated as one of the birthstones for December. Compositionally, copper-rich groundwater seeps underground to react with minerals containing phosphorus & aluminum.”
