Drawn from the souvenir cuffs of the Fred Harvey era, two applied sterling thunderbirds face out from a round New Lander stone from Nevada, with stamped arrowheads and arrows running each side of the band. Made to order in your size for as long as our supply of these stones lasts, struck with our own steel stamps and finished with a strong patina. Each stone carries its own subtle variation, and on the shortest and longest sizes the stamp pattern may differ slightly at the ends to fit.

Made to Order

Every piece that leaves our shop is made to last. If something fails due to a defect in materials or workmanship, we'll take care of you.

Made to order. This piece is made by hand at our bench in Columbia, Tennessee once you order it, so it ships within 5–7 business days. You'll get tracking by email as soon as it's on its way.

Returns and exchanges within 30 days of delivery — unworn and in original condition. Return shipping is on us.

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

New Lander comes out of northern Nevada, worked across the valley from the old Lander Blue mine near Battle Mountain. Lander Blue was a once-in-a-lifetime find: Rita Hapgood, a blackjack dealer in town, turned it up along Indian Creek in 1973, and only about a hundred pounds of high-grade stone ever came out of it. Sold in the trade as turquoise, most New Lander is variscite and chalcosiderite, turquoise's sister stones, found in the same ground. It runs pale mint to apple green, now and then with yellow or orange, and some of it carries a dark spiderweb matrix.
