This one of a kind, striking pendant showcases a genuine 2-inch Hubei turquoise, bezel set in polished sterling silver to highlight its rich, natural matrix and vibrant blue-green tones. The stone hangs gracefully from a 12mm round sterling silver jump ring with a cleverly hidden clasp for a seamless look. Suspended on a 17-inch sterling silver 1.7mm cable chain, the piece combines elegant craftsmanship with the organic beauty of Hubei turquoise—making it a refined statement piece that bridges classic Southwestern artistry and modern minimalism. The back has a brushed finish star cutout. This turquoise pendant can be easily removed to just wear the chain alone...or add one of your own charms to the existing pendant!
What is Hubei Turquoise?
Hubei turquoise is a type of turquoise mined in Hubei Province, China, primarily from the Yungai and Hubei mines (often collectively referred to as the “Hubei mines”). It’s one of the most significant sources of turquoise in the world today and is known for its wide range of colors, matrix patterns, and quality levels.
Matrix Patterns: Often shows striking spiderweb or veined matrices in brown, black, or golden tones — sometimes resembling famous American turquoise mines like Bisbee, Kingman, or Number 8.
