This listing is for a custom Tyrone Turquoise ring, crafted by hand especially for you. To place an order, simply select your favourite piece of Turquoise and your ring size from the drop-down menus. I will then use the specifications from your purchase to create your very own custom ring. Like all my work, each ring is individually handcrafted, using recycled silver, cruelty-free materials, ethically sourced gemstones and environmentally friendly methods.

💎TYRONE TURQUOISE LORE:
Turquoise is perhaps the oldest stone in man's history, the talisman of kings, shamans, and warriors. Among the Ancient Egyptians, Persians and Chinese, Aztecs and Incas of South America, and Native North Americans, Turquoise was sacred in its adornment and for power, luck, and protection.
Wearing Turquoise is said to bring strength, protection from harm, psychic sensitivity and good fortune. It is a symbol of friendship, aids wearers while traveling and brings peace to the home.
The Tyrone mine is located southwest of Silver City in New Mexico. The mine has not been active since the early 1980's, so all of the stones available were mined before that time. It is medium brilliant blue in its high grade form. Today, Tyrone Turquoise is valued for both its beauty and rarity and is a real asset to silver jewellery. It is considered to be one of the greatest New Mexico Turquoise Mines.
