c1970's Lander Blue Turquoise Native American Silver bracelet For Sale

c1970's Lander Blue Turquoise Native American Silver bracelet. Fits up to a 6.5" (165mm) wrist including the 1" gap 1.7" or 43mm wide. Center stone approx 23mm x 14mm, smaller stones approx 16mm x 9mm. 80.2 grams total weight in which I think approximately 15 grams(75 carats) could be in stones very easily. This bracelet came from a significant collection of c1970's Native American jewelry. There was nothing extremely old in the collection and also nothing modern. While I don't know the story on the formation of the collection, my hypothesis is it was formed on a vacation or two to New Mexico during the 70's. All of the items were high quality. While anyone with eyes can see this is amazing, this bracelet would not have broke the bank in the 70's. It would have been appreciated at the time, but a very small fraction of the appreciation it would receive today. There were other pieces in this collection from the same era with values in excess of 10k, there were 5 Preston Monongye bracelets in theis collection.This bracelet has no artisan or purity markings whatsoever which would be appropriate for the early to mid 70's when i believe this bracelet was made. I believe it was made before the rarity of the stones was understood. Obviously it's a well made bracelet with obviously beautiful stones. I feel less than half of the artisan's of this period were marking their work.I was born in 1975, I didn't mine these stones, nor have I owned any other Lander Blue that I know of as it's extremely rare. It's the type of thing you could look your whole life for and never find. I have compared it to other stones I have including Chinese Hubei spiderweb turquoise which wasn't introduced to the US until the 80's. It's significantly different. I have ran this by some people which a lot more experience than me, people that have had/seen Lander Blue in person and the consensus was it's Lander Blue. I've spent much time myself looking over Charles Loloma's and other documented pieces that are without a doubt Lander Blue and I'm convinced.Unconditional guarantee no questions asked return privileges, also I would be happy to facilitate an in person inspection.Have you heard of Lander Blue Turquoise, the rarest turquoise in the world?In 1973, Rita Hapgood, a Blackjack dealer from the battle mountain, Nevada, went hiking with her sisters. While out hiking, she found some really fine-looking turquoise rocks. She then went back and filed a mining claim along Indian Creek, which borders the Lander ranch and Lander county.Rita then sold the claim to Marvin Simes and Hank Dorian, who then brought in Bob Johnson to work the mine.A "Hat" Mine
The land of mine turned out to be a hat mine, which is a way of saying that the mine was so small that you could cover it with your hat.Only about a hundred pounds of high-grade Turquoise were extracted. Lander Blue Turquoise is now considered to be the finest and most rare turquoise in the world. It is known for its beautiful medium to deep blue spider webbing pattern against a dark, almost iridescent-looking matrix.
