Golden Hills Turquoise Star Necklace by Gary Glandon

Handmade Golden Hills Turquoise Jewelry

Introducing the Golden Hills Turquoise Star Necklace, an extraordinary handmade creation by Gary Glandon and the seasonal showpiece for our store. This breathtaking necklace showcases the decades of skill that define Gary's work. As one of only one or two large necklaces he creates each year, this piece is truly one of a kind, combining rare stones, intricate craftsmanship, and exceptional design.

At its heart, the necklace features seven stunning Golden Hills Turquoise stones, carefully arranged in a striking star-like shape. Known for its distinct lavender hues, Golden Hills Turquoise stands apart from any other variety, making this piece a rare and collectible treasure. Golden Hills Turquoise comes from Kazakhstan and has become a highly sought-after variety in the last several years. Since Gary likes to pick out his stones in person, he only has one opportunity each year to pick this turquoise. Surrounding the stones, Gary added silver triangles at each star point, giving the design a bold, radiant touch.

To further elevate this masterpiece, Gary incorporated four individual diamond-shaped sterling silver sections into the necklace. Each piece features unique texturing created with a specialized jeweler’s hammer, adding extra character. Atop each textured section, Gary soldered a smaller three-dimensional diamond shape, adding dimension.

The turquoise cluster at the center of the necklace measures 3 1/4 inches long and 2 3/4 inches wide, creating a large focal point. With the attached silver chain, this necklace measures 24 inches in total length.

This necklace represents the pinnacle of Gary Glandon’s artistry, combining rare turquoise and skilled silverwork to create a truly one-of-a-kind work of art. Whether you’re a collector of fine handmade jewelry or seeking a standout piece for special occasions, the Golden Hills Turquoise Star Necklace is an absolute treasure.
