Variquoise is a highly valued combination of turquoise and variscite along with several obscure accessory minerals which make it extremely rare.  This particular variety of variquoise is from the material collected years ago from Snowville, Utah and has recently become very popular as a premium item in the turquoise market.  The variation of blue/green pattern with smoky gray/black accent make it a fabulous stone to work with and make exciting, finished pieces.
