Details

BEAR symbols refer to spiritual or inner power and resilience. Bear can speak of independence, and strengthening of the will.

KINGMAN TURQUOISE is considered to be one of the classic and more easily recognizable American Turquoises, Kingman Turquoise was first mined by Native Americans as early as 600 A.D. This Arizona turquoise rose to fame due to its production of nuggets - which few mines produce. Waterweb Kingman is high-grade stone with a tight, beautiful matrix and is highly prized and sought after by collectors worldwide.
