Broken Arrow Variscite Choker by Ray Lovato (#152)

We offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee on every purchase.

Ray Lovato just drove in with a worn-out Dodge Caravan, six family members, three loaves of freshly baked Pueblo bread and a bag full of treasures. Within that saddle bag was a wonderful choker necklace of Broken Arrow Variscite. Ray said the material came from the Broken Arrow mine in Esmerelda County, Nevada. He met David Otteson, the mine owner, in Santa Fe, New Mexico and bought the rough material. Ray has the magic touch when it comes to turning raw material into a thing of beauty.

About the artist:

The gift of humor is a blessing to those who have it, and to those of us exposed to the comic. From an early age, Steve and I have been blessed with the humor of Santa Domingo artist Ray Lovato. Not only does Ray create exceptional jewelry, he does it with wit and comedy. He always has an aura of happiness around him, and this attitude seems to spread, like a California fog, to those who know him. In addition to his artistic talents, Ray is also a gifted salesman. When he pulls up in front of the trading post we know that there is a good possibility that we will soon be parting company with our available cash.
