A rare green gemstone, Lucin variscite is found in isolated spots in Utah and Nevada. Most of the variscite in North America is under private claim but a small outcrop is accessible on public land west of the Great Salt Lake. It’s in a spectacularly beautiful area near the ghost town of Lucin. Abraham Peina made gorgeous use of a verdant Lucin variscite specimen for a sea Turtle's domed carapace that's bordered by twisted silver. The way he carved the variscite specimen is quite lovely too. Long flippers are from reticulated sterling silver, while a gold accent adorns the head region. Including bale, dimensions of this unique pendant are about 2 1/2" long, 1 7/8" wide and 3/8" deep. Signed by the artist.
