I made this ring a few weeks ago.
I bought the turquoise at the recent gem and mineral show. It's not my usual style, but it was fun to make!
I tried something funky with the shank.

This is gorgeous, as usual!! I LOVE the shank!! It reminds me of stirrups. Well done, my friend. You are darn good at making those "rain drops" too.

Thanks Autumn!
I tried to do something a little different this time.
I have a yummy piece of White Water turquoise that I'm itching to work with next!

Ooooo that's lovely material (from Mexico, correct?). I hope you'll be sharing! When are you opening your own shop, so I can partake?

Yes, from Mexico, just south of Arizona.

@MMtwo Haha...There will be no selling! My heart's not strong enough to deal with PayPal and the post office!

Isn't this stone it pretty? I don't have any ideas for it quite yet.

I always wondered where that was but now it all makes sense :mrgreen2:

I guess there's a New one but that's more to the east.

In any event, gorgeous ring as always!

You've been studying the map!
I happen to reside in the "New" one!
The new and old get mixed up all the time.
Unlike you, some folks are geographically challenged!;-) :)
