  • Beautiful! Pieces with turquoise from Saudi are among my favourite types. Did you find them in the middle east or outside?

  • Hi Preethi, found the ring in an antique store in Stockholm collecting dust among shelves filled with classical European antiques. I really like that is is so well worn.

  • Gorgeous!

  • Thank you Ann.
