{"product_id":"vintage-afghan-turkman-turquoise-silver-dangle-earrings","title":"Vintage Afghan Turkman Turquoise Silver Dangle Earrings","description":"\u003cp\u003eThree tiers of vivid Afghan turquoise cascade from a silver heart top — each teardrop cabochon more saturated than the last, framed in granulated silver beadwork that is unmistakably Turkman in character. The deep, electric blue of these stones is no accident: Afghan turquoise is prized for its rich copper content, which produces intensely saturated hues unlike the paler sky-blue tones found elsewhere in the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat Makes Afghan Turquoise Unique\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe region's mineral deposits yield deeply saturated blue tones with delicate webbed or branched matrix patterns — dark veining that gives each stone its own earthy, one-of-a-kind character. Afghan jewelers and artisan workshops have set these vivid stones into bold silver pieces for centuries, continuing a tradition rooted in the Silk Road gem trade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eNote: If you see a very dark royal-blue stone with golden specks in Afghan jewelry, that is likely Lapis Lazuli — another legendary Afghan gemstone. These earrings feature genuine turquoise in its distinctly Afghan deep blue.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Silver-toned metal with Afghan turquoise cabochons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStyle: Turkman tribal, three-tier dangle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClosure: Ear wire hook\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStone: Afghan turquoise (vivid deep blue)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: Afghanistan, vintage handmade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetail: Granulated silver beadwork frames\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Boulder Bohemian","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49741420822767,"sku":null,"price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/4308\/6831\/files\/Screenshot2026-06-12at2.17.46PM.png?v=1781295595","url":"https:\/\/boulderbohemian.com\/products\/vintage-afghan-turkman-turquoise-silver-dangle-earrings","provider":"BOULDER BOHEMIAN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
