Turquoise Cabachon Ring

I’ve had this piece of turquoise for a long, long time. I picked it up because it was a totally clean piece of turquoise, meaning it didn’t have any of the black veining in it which we call matrix. It took me a while to decide what to do with it, I was debating between something modern and something vintage. In the end I decided to do both.

Care Instructions:

• • Store in an airtight ziploc bag to prevent tarnish (included with purchase).
  • Sterling silver may tarnish if the piece is stored away and not worn for a while. To remove built up tarnish use the anti-tarnish cloth to rub it off (included with purchase).
  • Do not wear in a pool, spa or hot tub as the chemicals may cause the silver to tarnish and the chemicals are too harsh for the turquoise.
  • It would also be wise to remove the ring before performing any strenuous activity and before bed. Turquoise is soft and porous so take care when wearing the ring not to subject it to activity that is likely to cause scratches or damage.
