Traditional Santo Domingo Damele Turquoise Bead Necklace by Ray Lovato.
The other day Ray Lovato, one of our favorite artists, stopped by and said he needed a little spending money for the grandbabies. At that point he retrieved this unusual Damele Turquoise necklace from his worn leather bag that is decades old.
After much discussion about what the grandkids needed and how rare the piece is, we made the deal. Afterwards we were both happy. Ray is always a pleasure, and always has great, museum quality, necklaces.
