Vintage NAVAJO Native American Indian Silver Blue Gem Turquoise Squash Blossom Necklace 1960's era antique piece of original Navajo jewelry Beautiful Blue Gem Turquoise from the Blue Gem Mine in Nevada. The Blue Gem mine, which is no longer active, produced almost every shade of green and blue turquoise imaginable. The Blue Gem mine site is located near Battle Mountain. It produced a great variety of turquoise, from intense blue to deep green combinations with a hard, irregularly distributed matrix.

The Battle Mountain or Blue Gem mine, which began production in 1934 yielded the most valuable Blue Gem turquoise because of its rich color and hardness. Of the several Nevada mines that are named Blue Gem, this is the largest and most famous. This mine was one of the deepest with lots of underground tunnels. Blue Gem closed in the 70's and there doesn't seem to be much available today. Lovely silver bench bead pearls Weight: approx. It is marked but I can't make out what it says. Looks like a maker's signature or mark. Inches long Centerpiece Naja is. Inches by 2 1/2 inches Turquoise stone settings are. Inches by 7/8 inches with beautiful a silver swirl design. It is a detailed vintage southwestern Navajo sterling gemstone beauty! Vintage item with original patina in good condition.
