STABILIZED* Turquoise
- China
"Ear Ring" in Navajo is "Jacko".
Traditionally turquoise Jacklos were single strands of tapered turquoise
who's ends are gathered
into a loop then worn as ear rings or doubled for a dangle below a
turquoise, shell or coral necklace.
Wedge shaped 'corns' are placed at the bottoms of these loops to make
the transitional break.
I recently had the opportunity to spend an afternoon color matching into
Lots a huge shipment of
miniature Jacklo sets that had been custom cut for a
friend in the turquoise business.
- John |

These miniature Jacklos are about 2" long over all when held by
their ends. The beads taper from
3 mm at their tops down to 4.5 mm. The turquoise or spiney oyster shell
'corns are about 3/8" tall.
Note: Illustrations are random samples from each carefully matched Lot.
Individual sets will vary slightly. |
|
Tip: A slightly
flattened 1/2"x 6mm sterling cone
SS-CNE-506 will cap these mini jacklo strands nicely. |
