Item Description
A beautiful and classic specimen of Turquoise from the classic Bishop Mine in Virginia. The piece features attractive, rich greenish-blue colored Turquoise micro crystals on matrix. Lynch Station arguably produces the world's finest CRYSTALLIZED Turquoise, which for some reason is a great rarity in nature and occurs only at a VERY few localities worldwide. We have photographed the piece with a Canon MP-E 65mm to better illustrate the quality. When it comes to minerals of Virginia, this is one of the first things that people think of. Priced at $950 retail.
