Contemporary Inlaid Sugilite and Sterling Necklace and Cuff
Navajo -- Toney Mitchell

Lovely sterling necklace and bracelet inlaid with two colors of sugilite.

In 1979, a new gem material with a striking purple color was found in the Wessels mine in the northern part of Cape Province, Republic of South Africa.

Examination of jewelry quality sugilite shows that it consists of manganese bearing sugilite in a poly-crystalline aggregate.  The purple color is due to the presence of about 1-3 wt. % manganese oxide.
