History and location of Carico Lake turquoise

A short trip to Nevada is in order to discover the fascinating history of this exceptional turquoise. Carico Lake turquoise, mined at Battle Mountain in Nevada's Lander County, is one of the most beautiful stones this region has to offer. Nevada, a true geological treasure, is home to a variety of turquoise stones of incomparable beauty, and among them, Carico Lake stands out for its rarity and unique brilliance.

This turquoise bears an unusual name, deriving from the very location of the mine, situated on the bed of a lake that has now dried up. Its color is a subtle blend of springtime lime green, interspersed with touches of luminous sky blue, the whole dotted with a golden-brown spiderweb matrix that gives it a singular and particularly sought-after aesthetic.

For centuries, this magnificent stone has been prized by Amerindians, who use it to adorn their jewelry, creating pieces of great cultural and spiritual value.

As with all turquoise, discover the nuances and subtleties of Carico Lake turquoise.

A color that won't leave you indifferent...

Carico Lake turquoise is a true marvel, a stone with bewitching colors that captivate the eye. Its palette ranges from a soft, soothing sky blue to a vivid green, full of the character and energy we love. This bright green, which has recently become highly prized for its rarity and unique hue, represents only 3% of Battle Mountain's production. It's the result of a special combination: faustite, a mineral close to turquoise, mixes with zinc and turquoise itself, creating one of the most impressive color effects ever seen in American turquoise.

Today, mining at Battle Mountain is very limited, restricting the supply of this precious material. As demand for Carico Lake turquoise continues to grow, it has become one of the most sought-after and expensive of American turquoise.
