In this ring, sits a high plateau cut turquoise with a high saturation of blue and brown mineral patterning much to the delight of any turquoise lover. A ring design that pushes the silver presence of the piece to an equal proportion of the tall riding turquoise cut, giving an overall bold presentation. This 10.4 carat Carico Lake turquoise is a scalene triangle with 3 rounded angles and the longest side running parallel to the length of finger. The bezel setting has been formed along one side to cradle a natural dip in the material, resulting in a contouring line aesthetic while the other two sides run straight. I find this to add an interesting area that honors the nature of the cut and material. This hefty turquoise piece undoubtedly represents Carico Lake turquoise as an American mined cornerstone in a straightforward approach.
