A large men’s ring set with a beautiful piece of White Buffalo. Made by Sam Masayumptewa, this one is a size 14.25 and is $125. (SANTA FE)
White Buffalo is not turquoise as it does not contain any copper. It is predominantly composed of magnesite, calcite, and dolomite, with its white color resulting from nearby magnesium deposits that bleach the pigment during formation.
