Sold. This one-of-a-kind piece is held in a private collection.

Questions? Reach us at info@thecommon.co.

We're among those who appreciate the character natural wear puts on a piece. That said, a few simple measures will help maintain the basic integrity of your jewelry.

  • Keep it dry. Avoid submerging your pieces underwater — this helps prevent discoloration of both the stones and the silver.
  • Go easy on cuffs. Avoid bending cuffs too often, as repeated flexing wears down the silver and can cause cracking or breakage. Gently molding a cuff to your wrist for the initial fit is perfectly fine.
  • Polish as needed. Oxidation occurs naturally to every piece left out in the open. A simple dry clean with a polishing cloth — or a soft handkerchief hanging around — should do the trick.

Stone Story

Royston Turquoise has been mined in the Royston District of Nevada since the early twentieth century. One of America's most prized deposits, the district encompasses several historic claims known for yielding exceptional material across a wide range of colors and matrix patterns. It remains one of the most sought-after and recognized names in American turquoise.
