Derecho Red River Turquoise Earrings

Red River Turquoise boasts one of the most diverse color palettes of all of the turquoise varieties out there. The presence of various minerals in the host rock helps determine what colors will appear in the stone. This particular shade reminds me of the dust walls that blow up during the summer monsoon season, right before a nice, big rain. Set in sterling silver and finished with a matte, oxidized look to give them that “been around for a while” appearance.
