A Sleeping Beauty:
The highest quality turquoise available
Mark Henry turquoise hails from the Sleeping Beauty Mine near Globe, Arizona. It is home to some of the most valued turquoise in the world and has a brilliant, sky blue hue with trace amounts of vanadium. This rare stone is named after a remote mountain that resembles a sleeping woman laying on her back. Inspired by the rich history and distinct colors of these gems, Mark Henry juxtaposes their bold color with delicate pave details to create a wonderful contrast.
