What is this necklace worth?
I wonder if someone with knowledge of jewelry could give me an approximate value in this necklace Recently I bought at a local auction. I have published a photo on Flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/9553958 @ N02/4424848285 / I know that law is turquoise and a pearl. It recorded a 925 on the bottom that I know indicates that silver is .925. I searched both eBay and Google to find necklaces like the value without luck, so I'm hoping someone with some experience can help me jewelry. Thanks in advance.
This seems like a good piece. The silver work is done well, and looks the best designer. If the turquoise is real, it seems as it is, this piece comes in a nice jewelry for approx. $ 150.00. Thanks! Jonathan from www.saltlakesilver.com

Ovril Jack Turquoise Jewelry
If you are a fan of genuine turquoise jewelry then you should definitely have heard of Jack Ovril turquoise, and if you seen these stones then never forget. The turquoise color of the mark Ovril Jack is a bright green and it must be known jewelry collectors who have pieces of jewelry Jack Ovril of turquoise usually not part with them.
History
Ovril Jack's legacy goes all the way back to 1956, when the man moved to Nevada with his wife Bessie and her family. They chose a mining site in Lander County and named Blue Ridge and now the mine is still operating and is being attended by his daughter Grace Ovril. But Grace has to face the difficulties that are associated with small mines as there are a lot of expenses and environmental regulations that must be addressed.
Turquoise mining
Mining turquoise as Ovril daughter Grace the good old fashioned hard work. The initial part is done with the help of excavators to remove dirt and remnants of turquoise, once they are discovered and the tools have done everything possible, miners carefully extract the turquoise hand.
The discovery of greenstone
The stone that made the mine famous was the discovery of the green stone. This is the color that comes to mind when someone mentions Jack Ovril. During the latter part of his life one of the last areas mined Ovril Jack gave green stones were very beautiful, but never paid attention to Ovril green stones before, something about these stones that have caught your attention. He continued to mine in that area and what's more it sells only a small amount of this stone. The rest kept to himself. He died in 1986 and some years later that the family was contacted by turquoise jewelry and talented leaders of the day, Lee Louden ad Bob Hall, who were in search of this vivid green stone from the Blue Ridge mine. The bought the stones, returning a year later to help mining. Credit goes to these two men for the success of the mine in early 1990
100% natural turquoise
Gemstones of the Blue Ridge mine are 100% natural and best quality. Ovril Jack firmly believed that turquoise would be required to sell only natural and untreated kind. Today the mine also produces the blue gemstone which is very common and is present in most of the turquoise jewelry and sometimes the rare yellow stones. Today, the family continues this tradition and work closely Jewelry with turquoise that I personally know and trust. They ensure that the needs of these artisans are met before they take orders from others. Get your hands on a piece of turquoise jewelry Ovril Jack today can be a bit of a challenge, but if you do be sure that this is a piece you will treasure for the rest of his life.
