Stone Info
"New Lander" comes from the New Lander mine in Lander County, Nevada, and is a highly prized and sought after material. It is primarily composed of Chalcosiderite and Variscite, not Turquoise, but occurs in deposits alongside Turquoise and has a similar chemical composition, so is considered to be part of the "Turquoise family." Prized for its unique spiderweb patterns and contrasting colors, this material can only be found in a few small deposits in the US, making it a prized stone by collectors of American mined minerals.
Wear & Care
Over time, your jewelry's patina will develop its own unique character. To slow changes to the finish of your jewelry and prevent patina fading, keep it away from liquids, soaps, cosmetics, and other chemicals. Remember to remove your jewelry before any wet, rough, or messy activity (such as hand washing, swimming, applying lotions, exercising, or using household cleaning products). Jewelry cleaning products, such as TarnX tarnish remover, are NOT recommended for oxidized pieces, as they will strip the intentional patina. Jewelry polishing cloths, such as this one stocked in the shop, can be used to remove tarnish and shine high points.
For any who are interested, patina touch-ups may be arranged for a small fee + shipping costs. To arrange, please feel free to get in touch via info@blackfawnjewelry.com.
