We’ll say this plainly since buyers ask: white buffalo turquoise isn’t technically turquoise, it’s a white-to-cream magnesite or calcite material with black matrix veining, mined in Nevada and named for its resemblance to the rare white buffalo in folklore. So we disclose the actual mineral content on every order rather than let the trade name do the explaining. The matrix pattern varies stone to stone, from fine spiderweb lines to bold solid veins, and we grade before setting so a case order can be sorted by density. It’s a strong seller precisely because a white buffalo turquoise pendant or ring looks like nothing else on a Southwestern display, next to Black Jack turquoise or Cherry Blossom turquoise from the full catalog.
