Two Vintage, Turquoise Rings
Two rings with one thing in common: turquoise.
The mixed turquoise ring has conflicting origin stories. I thought it had been picked up in Africa when my Mom went on a solo trip years ago.
Another theory is that it might be a family heirloom from an antique store in Vermont.
Either way we don't know much about it.
Time period & origin: unknown.
The Zuni thunderbird ring was actually one of my first Etsy purchases! I love the inlaid mix of turquoise, black onyx, mother of pearl, and coral that is typical for this style of jewelry.
Upon realizing how many Zuni pieces I have, I also may have a Zuni jewelry addiction 😂.
Time period: 1930s.
