I really enjoyed the show.  I was wondering you can make  Sleeping Beauty Doublet earrings.  I think they'd make a fabulous addition to the bracelets and rings you are already offering.

 


@benamarie I am so glad you enjoyed the show.  I love the idea of Sleeping Beauty Doublet Earrings.   We have never done that before and the crystal on top of the Turquoise would really make them glow.  I will work with the designer and see what we can come up.   Thanks for writing in and the great suggestion, Peyton

Thank you Peyton. That is very helpful. I love the the turquoise you bring to QVC. I love that it is not dyed to enhance the color. That's a huge relief to me. I did order the stunning Kingman ring with the large stone. I'm so excited! This is my first Kingman turgquoise ring. Is Kingman turquoise ever greenish or is it always this high blue color?


@alemcdor

We do not accept any tuquoise that has been dyed.    It is so important, whether Kingman or Sleeping Beauty to start with the rough stones.   That way we are assured of what we are getting.  Kingman tuquoise does come in a beautiful rich green as well.   We have never done it before but should in the future.  I love Kingman not only because of the color but also the characteristic veining.   It makes every piece unique.  Best, Peyton

I am concerned bout wearing my turq. daily. How is the durability compared to diamonds? I have a Carolyn Pollack SB turq ring that I love. Can it withsand daily wear??


@lmjae

Hi, Please don't be concerned about this.  Wear it every day and enjoy.   It is between 5-6 on the hardness scale.  Diamonds are a perfect 10.  Turquoise is very durable and strong.I love Carolyn's designs.   She is great friend and excellent jewelry designer.   Please enjoy her ring and wear it every day.   Thanks, Peyton

Re: Let's Chat about Turquoise!

I will be answering questions until 6:00 PM EST.   If you have any questions after that, please post them and I will answer tomorrow.   I have to get ready for a very special Gemstone Hour tonight at 11 PM with Rick.   There is one new Sleeping Beauty Turquoise ring in sterling silver in his show.   There are many other incredible gem pieces as well.   Please tune in if you can.

Take care and thanks for writing to me.  Best, Peyton

I purchased the 14K Sleeping Beauty and diamond ring with the scalloped edges some time ago and I think there was a matching pendant. Am I correct?  If so is that pendant still available?  I watched your show this morning and this afternoon!  Love turquoise and love listening to you tell all about your adventures!

Hi, I am so happy that you got that ring.   It is a true beauty and the very finest Sleeping Beauty.   I don't remember the pendant but let me check tomorrow and see.   It would be stunning.   Thanks for the kind words.   Best, Peyton

Re: Let's Chat about Turquoise!

Hello Peyton,

Talking about the large turq, diamond , and yellow gold ring now.  How is the stone held securely in the setting?  Would it be sensitive to being tapped while wearing?

Thank you and enjoy your shows,

Susan
