Important Vintage Native American Navajo Star Of Royston Turquoise Sterling Silver Necklace

This is a marvelous vintage Navajo large single star shaped stone silver necklace. This outstanding necklace consists of a fascinating intricate hand carved star shaped Royston turquoise stone that measures around 1-1/4" X 1-1/4". The turquoise star is situated on a beautiful star shaped silver pendant that measures around 1-3/4" X 1-1/2" including the silver bail. Surrounding the silver pendant are wonderful silver ropes with accenting silver shells. What I also love on this necklace is the thick and sturdy silver link necklace as well as how the artist made the clasp near the bail instead of at the end like most necklaces. Such a remarkable necklace. . Sterling silver, marked. Cir. 1970's+. Signed by Navajo artist, Robert Chakey . The length of the necklace measures around 24". Sturdy 28 grams. The Royston Turquoise Mine is located in Nevada, USA, and is known for producing high-quality turquoise gemstones. The mine is situated in the Royston District, which is part of the larger Pilot Mountain Range. The turquoise found in this region is highly sought after for its unique colors and distinctive matrix patterns. Royston turquoise is renowned for its wide range of colors, including various shades of blue, green, and sometimes even yellow. The stone often features a golden or brown matrix that provides a beautiful contrast to the vibrant turquoise hues. This matrix is a result of the host rock surrounding the turquoise during formation. Due to the popularity and scarcity of high-quality Royston turquoise, it is highly valued by jewelry makers and collectors alike. Jewelry pieces featuring Royston turquoise can be found in various styles and designs, ranging from traditional Native American jewelry to contemporary pieces created by independent artists
