[@dustynothing5229]

Those examples in your rings are stunning! Cool vid thanks!

[@tattoofthesun]

This was amazing. I’ll be watching this over and over Looking forward to seeing Dry Creek and Candelaria and especially the different shades of Carico Lake!!!!

[@athenassigil5820]

Wow! All those pieces are absolutely stunning. I don't normally like gold and turquoise together, I'm a silver/turquoise kinda guy, but those rings and gold cuff really let the Bisbee blue, really shine!

[@turquoiseinamerica3164]

Bisbee blue, especially at the higher grades is complimented by gold.

[@athenassigil5820]

@@turquoiseinamerica3164 Mhm! Absolutely stunning!

[@turquoiseinamerica3164]

Yes. That quality of Bisbee is quite rare.

[@maryspeidel5258]

I was told by an old Arizonan who remembers people made stone fences out of that stone in the old days.

[@tattoofthesun]

Wow Mike!!! That’s some GEM state Bisbee!!!!

[@turquoiseinamerica3164]

Thank you. Our series on the famous mines will run throughout the year so there is a lot more turquoise to see.

[@franktaccetta784]

If I sent you a photo of my Bisbee Ring could you give me a general grading for it? I felt like it was higher than the mid grade you showed but maybe not QUITE as high as the very high grade lol. I can't say for sure, it may very well be high grade because it's a stunning stone, with a deep deep blue color and great brown/black matrix. But those you showed were so unique and beautiful, mine is absolutely beautiful but in a different way so I would love your opinion if possible!

[@turquoiseinamerica3164]

I can give my opinion but grading is not possible from a photo. You can grade the ring yourself following the Turquoise Grading System using the R2 rules of grading I developed. You can find videos and an article describing the system on the Blog at turquoiseinamerica.com .

[@elizabethwestlake8896]

Please work to present better closeups of pieces and stones. Rathe than wearing them you might want to show them on stands. Thank you

[@turquoiseinamerica3164]

Send me some stands and I will be happy to.

[@turquoiseinamerica3164]

I would contact Donna Mead on FaceBook.

[@RS-jo2yl]

😊 thank you so much!

[@patriciazoerner]

Really, don't try to show turquoise while you wear it. Your camera person lacks the ability to get a good focus these moving object and it is frustrating as "all get out" trying to actually see the what I can only assume are lively pieces of high grade turquoise under these circumstances.

[@turquoiseinamerica3164]

I am sorry you do not enjoy the videos. I suggest you look elsewhere for information on turquoise. I try my best which most viewers enjoy. Please let me know when you find something better.

[@Ben6Strings]

That's odd because I can see it all just fine. These videos are by far the best informative videos on turquoise, especially regarding individual mines and history. Don't be so negative next time. He didn't have to show his jewelry- I see it as a bonus.
