Vintage Double Strand Kingman Nugget Necklace

Jewelry : Vintage : Necklaces : Kingman Turquoise Nuggets : Silver Overlay

 

The color of the turquoise in the necklace has medium aqua blue turquoise nuggets with iron pyrite ( fools gold ) and very little matrix. The blue of this turquoise would look great with summer pastels. The nuggets themselves are slightly larger than those in a chip turquoise necklace. The double strand is 32 1/2 inches in length. The findings are Silver overlay. The iron pyrite in the turquoise identifies the turquoise as Kingman Turquoise. This necklace has been in storage for many years. I bought out a New Mexico store's inventory. I don't think the necklace has ever been worn. The necklace needs to 'relax' ( ie un kink ). This can be accomplished by hanging on a door nob for a few days.
