Sonoran Sunrise is getting so difficult to find that offering one this size, with such great color delineation is a cause for deep consideration. This Navajo made Sonoran Sunrise ring measures 1 3/8 inches long and 1 inch wide. It is a sensationally well made ring with lots of subtile design touches and a mega sturdy 4 gauge half round ring shank that will suit being worn hard by even the busiest working hand. If you've thinking about starting a Sonoran Sunrise collection of your own, this ring would be a great place to start or add to it.
Nothing works quite as well together as green and red. When it was first popularized in the 1950's, Sonoran sunrise was often referred to as the “Christmas tree stone.” I know of nothing fashion else that has the look of Sonoran sunrise. It is actually an unusual mix of two stones, cuprite (red) and chrysocolla (green) that for whatever reason decided to form together. I like to think it was so that people would be delighted by its beauty, but I have no proof of that!
The raw material was mined in the Sonoran Desert south of Tucson, Arizona on the Mexican side of the border. The mine is now played out so quality Sonoran sunrise like this is very hard to find. Collectors everywhere are scrambling to secure good quality Sonoran sunrise because it is becoming increasingly scarce.
