Campitos Turquoise Sterling Silver Necklace Pendant

This sterling silver pendant features a beautiful Campitos turquoise cabochon from Mexico. The elongated tear drop cabochon is bezel set and framed with wire work and granulation.  It has an enclosed back which helps protect the beautiful cabochon and also adds substantial silver weight to the piece.  It measures a little over 1 ½” not including the bail. This pendant comes with a 16” sterling silver chain, however the bail is large enough to accommodate thicker chains if you want to swap this one out.

Campitos turquoise comes from Mexico. The “belt” of turquoise that produces Campitos turquoise runs all the way from Nevada, through Arizona, and down to Mexico, and includes some of the most famous turquoise mines in the world including Royston, lone Mountain, Landers, Fox, Kingman, Sleeping Beauty, Morenci and Bisbee.
