The stone is a nice large piece and measures approximately 1 3/4" x 1 1/8". It is a fabulous deep sky blue, with gorgeous dark colored web matrix. There are small copper colored flecks, if viewed under a loupe. The stone is in great condition and looks hand polished. It is bezel set with a double feather design.
It comes on a black leather cord with Sterling Silver stamped end caps that have hanging initials C and L. Custom piece with original owners initials possibly. The cord with end caps measures approximately 36 from end to end.
The back pressure clasp is an early design and pre-dates the Bennet style clasp. This is a wonderful, early piece with untreated natural turquoise. The color in the photos is fairly close to the actual piece, but it was hard to photograph. I would say the color is even a bit more bright and a deeper sky-blue than shown. Please keep in mind that there may be possible variations in color due to different screens or monitor settings that it may be viewed on. The final photo shows the size of this amazing piece next to a ruler. Also photographed next to a fifty cent piece for size comparison.
