Overview & history
Southwestern turquoise-and-silver jewelry — squash blossom necklaces, concho belts, cuffs, and statement necklaces — is the department's engine, with fine natural turquoise commanding premiums.
Identifying & marks
Look for hand-stamped silver, a sterling mark, and an artist hallmark; natural turquoise shows real matrix and color variation, unlike stabilized or block imitations. Weight and stone quality drive value.
