Vintage Sterling Silver & Turquoise Rondelle Necklace with Matrix Pendant — EUC

This striking and weighty hand-strung necklace features graduated turquoise rondelle beads in green to blue-green hues, with sterling silver spacer beads. The pendant is a natural turquoise matrix specimen - pieces of turquoise embedded in the original host stone, polished to reveal the organic formation pattern. The matrix pendant showcases how turquoise naturally forms in veins within the mother rock - a geological treasure. Features silver bail work and an ornate cowboy hat charm toggle clasp for Southwest flair. The beads display the signature lime-to-teal coloring and brown matrix characteristic of premium Nevada mines, possibly Carico Lake or Damele.
