Turquoise Buffalo carving

On HOLD – buyer please contact gallery

PURE natural turquoise BUFFALO carving from the Sixties. Over 335 carats of genuine untreated Morenci turquoise. From a time when miners drove old trucks to work and high graded copper miners on lunch time. This is the source of “lunch bucket “ turquoise. It was common in Arizona mining towns. Until the turquoise boom of the Seventies.

This artist likely saw the Buffalo in its shape or silhouette. Great value
