This is a sumptuous necklace. A fine piece made with the most exquisite turquoise… A 2.5 ROYSTON centerpiece! The CHAVEZ family has been making jewelry for generations and generations. Gloria Chavez, the matriarchal figure of the family, has been maintaining the high quality of work all throughout the years. Her sons, with Gloria’s eagle eyes, make incredible jewelry, traditional pieces with a unique style. They have the talent. Their jewelry is INIMITABLE. One more time they prove their strength with a wonderful necklace. It is a traditional style revisited by the Chavez… To be an outrageously big turquoise Rostonian dangling necklace. Pure elegant beauty, giving a taste of centuries ago… The necklace is 20 long, built on a Navajo traditional hand made links chain. On each side it has two gorgeous 1.5 long green turquoise. They have bright golden caramel veining illuminating the stones. Then, the center piece… It is a Royston turquoise, 2.5 long, in a soft green color leaving the matrix do the whole show in all the golden shades nature could imagine, from sandy to bronze. The feathers, the swirls, the hand made graduated beads make the most exquisite frame to the stone, which looks as much as a painting as a stone. And delicately, one by one, two turquoise dangle. Like babies of the big Royston. Newborn or unfinished stones… The first one is in the same green hues and has almost no matrix. The last dangling turquoise has a charming unique shape, a pure transparent green and a unique brown spot as if the matrix was starting to form. The sterling silver gets exuberant all around, swirls and tiny leaves, to celebrate the last note of the necklace. The necklace is 20 long all around – It could be worn shorter because it closes with an old style hook which can attached to any link. The chain is around 5″ on each side + 10″ of turquoise. There is 6″ of vertical turquoise in the center – 2.5″ main big Royston turquoise + 1.5″ round dangling turquoise + 2″ bottom dangling turquoise. The necklace WEIGHS 165 grams.
