American Mined Gemstones

State of Nevada Variscite necklace carved out of Nevada mined Variscite outside of Tonopah, Nevada. This necklace measures 18” long with a 1” extension at the clasp and is hand crochet using 100% Refined & Recycled Sterling Silver made in the western USA. The gemstone measures 1” long by just over a half inch at its widest point. 

This necklace is created using Nevada mined Variscite from the Desert bloom mine. The mine is located in the Candelaria Mining District in the western part of Nevada near Tonopah and is owned by the Otteson family. This particular mine produces both Turquoise and Variscite. It can be difficult to tell where the turquoise ends and the variscite begins. Some stones appear to even contain both.

✨Variscite can look a lot like  Turquoise- the beautiful green kind. Variscite comes in a variety of stunning shades of green. Pale to emerald-green, bluish green, colourless to white, pale shades of brown or yellow, rarely red; Colourless to pale green in transmitted light. Fun fact: Variscite was named after Variscia, an old name for Vogtland, the German district where the mineral was first discovered.
