IT IS MINED IN AUSTRALIA. HERE IS SOME RESEARCH WE DID ON THE STONE. Mookaite is a type of jasper found in Mooka Creek in Western Australia and is known for its unique and vibrant colors. Mookaite formed from the preserved remains of tiny sea creatures called radiolaria, which have transformed into a beautiful silicified rock over time. It is found in a range of colors, including yellow, red, pink, purple, and cream. The symbolism of Mookaite is often associated with the ability to make decisions and accept change. This mineral also symbolizes courage, which helps one take risks and explore unknown territory. Mookaite is also thought to be associated with joy, balance, and harmony in relationships. HERE ARE SOME MEASUREMENTS; THE BEARS MEASURE 20 mm (W) X 18 mm (H) & TOTAL LENGTH END TO END IS 31 1/4. THE CLOSURE IS STERLING SILVER CONES. THE BEADS ARE GLASS & THERE ARE 23 BEARS. THIS REALLY MAKES A STATEMENT WHEN ON. PLEASE ASK ALL QUESTIONS AS ALL SALES ARE FINAL. THIS IS A HTF.
Navajo Gem Grade Spiderweb Variscite. Sterling Silver Belt Buckle. 3.1″ X 2.4″. Will accept a belt of up to 1.5. 63.6 grams = 2.04 Troy ounces. All measurement are approximate. Navajo Gem Grade Variscite Buckle. This Large and exquisite Belt Buckle was made by a talented Navajo artist using a stunning Spiderweb Variscite stone that has lots of dark Matrix. It is Not stamp signed with a hallmark depicting the maker, nor it is stamped “Sterling” on reverse of the buckle. There is no tarnish and has its original high luster. The buckle looks, and probably is what most would consider “New”. I listed it as pre-owned, because it is… The stone is really the story here and this gem grade Variscite stone is magnificent. It seems to have all the characteristics and look of a stone mined in the Candelaria area in Nevada. You may notice that this stone, with its interesting “globules” and dark background, could be mistaken for Turquoise from the same area. In the United States, Variscite is also mined in Utah and Wyoming. It is generally more rare than Turquoise, but it is not incorporated in Native jewelry as commonly as Turquoise. The mining region is located about 50 miles west of Tonoph, Nevada. Turquoise was first mined by a Mexican in about 1885. This stone is luminous and radiant. This exceptional material is appreciated and used by many of the best Native American jewelers. I hope you like it! The simple and precise stamp work is also impressive and worth examining in the magnified pictures! Here is a real treat. I have never seen a buckle that has stamping on the square bezel that holds the Turquoise… This one has it! It is all quite fine. If you are looking for an elegant large Navajo belt buckle with a dramatic Variscite stone, I believe it will please you.. As the Navajo say, “Walk in Beauty”. In the United States.
