    Hello Folks
    I just bought this really nice looking ring and need help determining it origins (region and style).
    It looks Tibetan and is quite large, the main stone looks to be Turquoise and the metal appears to be silver.
    Question: Is the stone really turquoise for I have not seen any example like this with its matrix pattern. The metal looks like silver and I will test for purity.
    The ring measures 50x26x7 mm.
    Any info will be greatly appreciated.

      I see a good size chip at the top of the stone.
