Bisbee Turquoise Cabochons From Durango Silver Company

Durango Silver Company has been collecting, cutting and using Bisbee Turquoise Cabochons in their Silver Jewelry for over 40 years. In 2001, Durango Silver Company had the great fortune of purchasing the balance of the Cecil Mickelson Bisbee Turquoise collection from his descendants, which, was one of the largest remaining collections of Bisbee Turquoise in existence. We have been in a continuous hunt for additional Bisbee Turquoise since and have landed several smaller collections throughout the years. Most recently, we have acquired another major Bisbee Turquoise collection from an old miners stash of over 30 years of mining at the Bisbee Turquoise mine. This collection came directly from the descendants of the Turquoise miner and is 100% authentic and natural Bisbee Turquoise.

We have been sorting and preparing a large new parcel of Bisbee Turquoise to be cut into a premier selection of Bisbee Turquoise Cabochons which will be marketed in late 2011 and throughout 2012. Bisbee Turquoise Cabochons are very rare and are not usually available, this is a rare occasion that you may what to be on top of as these Bisbee Turquoise cabochons become available from our company.
