Additional Information

Barse is known for its use of high-quality natural gemstones, particularly turquoise, in handcrafted jewelry with a Southwestern aesthetic. This necklace reflects traditional Native American and Southwestern influences, with the organic shapes of the turquoise nuggets and the sterling silver accents. The mix of blue-green hues with natural veining is characteristic of stabilized turquoise, which was commonly used in jewelry production during the late 20th century. The layered, chunky style aligns with the bohemian and rustic fashion trends that gained popularity in the 1990s and early 2000s.
