OOAK jewelry by Lani Robertson of Objects of Affection

  • Copper with electroformed kings manassa turquoise pendant.
  • Pendant is 1 1/4 x 1 1/4 inches.
  • Copper chain is 20 inches long with a lobster claw clasp.
  • The King’s Manassa turquoise mine, or more accurately the “King Turquoise Mine”, is located near Manassa, Colorado. It is one of the many turquoise deposits which was actively mined by Native Americans for centuries. I.P. King rediscovered the mine in 1890, and the King family has operated it ever since. It was originally called the Lick Skillet Mine.  The mine is not currently active, so Manassa turquoise is quite rare on today’s market.
  • Lani lives and creates in Peyton, CO
