For your bidding enjoyment we present a coin silver and Thunderbird turquoise bracelet by Jesse Robbins. This bracelet features a central Thunderbird turquoise cabochon resting in a smooth silver bezel, and displayed on a textured coin silver cuff. Thunderbird turquoise is mined in Esmerelda County, Nevada. The claim to this mine, held by J.D. Maupin lapsed in the 1970s with the bust of the turquoise boom. The mine was reopened as Thunderbird 1 and Thunderbird 2 by Tristan and Danny Otteson, son and grandson of Lynn Otteson who partnered with Maupin in the early years. This turquoise and sterling silver bracelet is one you will enjoy for years to come. Add it to your collection today!
