In making this necklace I combined end drilled turquoise nuggets, a sterling and turquoise pendant and sterling silver findings including a toggle clasp, 3 mm faceted beads and 4 mm round beads. The nuggets are about 1/4" in length and I was told by my supplier that they are from the Sleeping Beauty Mine. The necklace is about 17" in length and the pendant is about 1 1/4" by 1" and has interesting hand tooling.

The pendant is from New Mexico and turquoise in it is slightly lighter in color that the nuggets.
