About Kingman Turquoise

Kingman Turquoise is one of the most sought-after and historic varieties of turquoise in the world. Mined from the Kingman Mine in northwestern Arizona, it is known for its vivid blue color, often with a unique black or brown matrix. Some stones also exhibit a rare "water webbing" pattern, making them particularly valuable.

The Kingman Mine is one of the oldest and most productive turquoise mines in the United States, dating back over 1,000 years to Native American mining activities. Today, it is still actively mined using both traditional and modern extraction methods. The turquoise is carefully removed from the host rock, often requiring skilled craftsmanship to preserve its natural beauty.

This bolo tie is a testament to Travis Teller’s expert silversmithing and the enduring legacy of Kingman Turquoise, making it a perfect addition to any collection of Southwestern jewelry.
