Will Denetdale has taken a fabulous cabochon of high-grade, natural Bisbee turquoise and set it in a double-stack setting that enhances it perfectly. The stone was mined back in the 1970s when you could still get Bisbee on a regular basis. No more. The mine has been closed since then and Bisbee of this quality has become rare and is much more desirable. Will is a top-notch artist, who works silver in a masterful manner.
