Blackjack Turquoise Jewelry | Handmade Sterling Silver Designs

Blackjack Turquoise Jewelry — Handmade Sterling Silver Designs

Blackjack turquoise is known for its dramatic contrast: vivid blue-green color against deep chocolate or black matrix, a combination found only in a small Nevada deposit mined by the Otteson family. Each stone has a personality all its own — bold streaks, intricate webbing, and high contrast that makes every piece feel like wearable geology.

This collection brings together handmade sterling silver jewelry featuring genuine Blackjack turquoise, created in my Colorado studio using traditional metalsmithing techniques. I design each piece to let the stone’s natural drama shine, blending clean lines, subtle gothic-art-nouveau influences, and textures inspired by relics and desert landscapes.

Whether you’re looking for a statement turquoise necklace, an elegant pair of turquoise earrings, or a one-of-a-kind ring, Blackjack turquoise offers a striking, modern twist on classic Southwestern jewelry. Its bold matrix and saturated color make it a favorite among collectors who love high-contrast turquoise with strong personality.

Explore my Blackjack turquoise jewelry to find handcrafted pieces that highlight the raw beauty, rarity, and individuality of this extraordinary Nevada stone.
