Large Blue Diamond Turquoise Bolo Tie - Eugene Livingston (#072)

We offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee on every purchase.

"I am crazy about really great natural turquoise! Stones that show a rich depth of color and a balanced, uniquely distinctive matrix pattern appeal to me greatly. The old miners and collectors coined the term "Zat". Loosely translated, it means: turquoise that reaches out, grabs you by the collar and rocks your world. That's what the Blue Diamond turquoise in this bolo tie does for me. We had Eugene Livingston mount the stone in a classic setting designed to accentuate the power of the stone. He did well!"  - Barry Simpson's February 09 Staff Pick.

About the artist:

Eugene Livingston - Navajo Jewelry
Eugene is one of those rare artists who has mastered not just one or two methods, but a myriad of jewelry techniques. As a young man, he trained under other talented silversmiths After many decades of steady work, Eugene is skilled at metal fabrication, casting, making his own silver ingots, and most importantly for his work, the ability to cut stones. In his work below, you will see beautiful cut teardrop and pyramid cut Sleeping Beauty turquoise and coral. His two newest pieces with Carico Lake turquoise demonstrate his mastery of silver stamp work. See full biography | See all items by Eugene Livingston
