The Kingman Turquoise Mine is the oldest working mine and highest producing turquoise mine in the world, originally discovered by prehistoric Indians over 1500 years ago.

The superior properties of the Kingman turquoise set the standard for quality worldwide, as all turquoise traded is measured against Kingman turquoise as world currencies are measured against the dollar. Kingman Turquoise is known for its beautiful pure turquoise colors ranging from bluish green to sky blue. The many variants of green and blue turquoise are known for the finest matrix patterns of pure turquoise with often little to no markings, webbing, or matrix, making it very valuable and sought after.

Kingman Turquoise is mined from the copper rich rock formations of the Kingman Turquoise Mine in Kingman Arizona, which lies along prehistoric Native American trade routes. Natural Kingman Green Turquoise captures the magic and mystery of the ancient Southwest. Turquoise is known to be the purification stone of peace and serenity, a gentle guiding light that inspires self-care and self-confidence. The beautiful Navajo Pearls are sterling silver beads traditionally made by Native American Navajo (Diné) silversmiths.

Native American tribes were introduced to the technique of silversmithing by Spanish explorers in the late 1500's. They then added this newly found craftsmanship to their traditional methods of bead making, leading to what we continue to admire today as sterling silver Navajo desert pearls. What set the Navajo Pearls apart from other beads is the light oxidized finish to the beads that lends character and depth to the finished piece. They are often paired with gemstones or mixed with multiple sizes and shapes to create beautiful patterns from simple to complex.
