✦ About Royston Ribbon Turquoise

Royston Ribbon turquoise is a highly collectible variety mined in Nevada’s historic Royston district. Instead of forming in solid blue deposits, this material appears as vivid turquoise veins running through host rock—creating the iconic “ribbon” effect that collectors treasure.

Because Royston mining is done in small batches and high-grade ribbon material is scarce, every stone is truly one of a kind. Its dramatic contrast of warm sandstone matrix intersected by streams of glowing turquoise creates a natural landscape-like appearance that feels both ancient and elegant.

If you're drawn to turquoise with strong character, bold contrast, and unmistakable visual storytelling, Royston Ribbon is one of the most captivating varieties available today.
