The Turquoise Mine: The beginning... 

   It started with a gift of Native American jewelry; a hand crafted turquoise watchband. And then, Native American turquoise earrings. Then, again, a Native American turquoise pendant. What ultimately developed was a passion for Native American Indian jewelry, made with turquoise from all of the classic American Turquoise Mines; Sleeping Beauty, Morenci, Kingman to name a few...  And, although the core of our business is offering heirloom-quality Native American jewelry, we have discovered that beauty resides at home and beyond our shores, in the form of hand-crafted treasures created by skilled artisans. Two of our personal favorites are the stunningly beautiful pieces made from highly-skilled Tibetan artisans, as well as the luxuriously rich, natural Lapis mined from the ancient lands of Afghanistan. It is with such precious and semi-precious stones from which the Turquoise Mine creates its own one-of-a-kind designs. We seek and are drawn to uncompromising quality, uniqueness and rarity - which will generally fall into one of these three categories.

    We are a family team who share the same love of turquoise, natural stones and the riches and are inspired by their beauty. We aim to bring to the marketplace a fine array of original jewelry pieces which can be handed down through generations. We welcome you to peruse throughout our entire line of jewelry categories, to purchase that one, unique-piece that just "talks to you," or to simply window-shop. If you require further information on any item, please send us a note through the Contact Us link, or email us at info@theturquoisemine.com. It will be our pleasure to assist you. We hope you have a pleasurable experience digging for treasure, here, at The Turquoise Mine!

And for those dog fans out there; Archie (black) and Hagrid (brown), yes- we have a love for Newfoundlands too!  And yes, both look very nice wearing turquoise!
