Aylin Golden Hills Turquoise Silk Knotted Necklace
Description
The Aylin Golden Hills Turquoise Necklace | Rare & Character-Rich
The Aylin Necklace is a centerpiece of our collection—a breathtaking strand of rare Kazakh treasure. This limited edition Golden Hills turquoise necklace is defined by its beautiful tonal depth and a more prominent natural matrix than our previous versions. While Golden Hills is prized for its distinctively clear, light turquoise-blue hue, these stones feature a deep, chocolate-toned webbing that weaves through the strand, giving it an earthy, grounded character.
Each stone is hand-knotted on silk in our Doylestown studio and finished in your choice of 14K Gold Filled or Sterling Silver. This traditional technique provides a luxurious, fluid drape against the skin while ensuring each precious gemstone is protected. Sourced from the Altyn Tyube mine—where extreme conditions allow for only a short winter mining window—this strand is a hard-won prize from the Kazakh landscape, offering a level of detail and color that makes it a true collector's piece.

Why we love it: We love how the natural matrix in these stones tells a story of the earth, providing a beautiful contrast to the bright, "cooling" blue of the turquoise. It’s a sophisticated piece that feels both rare and wearable—a modern heirloom that brings a touch of the extraordinary to your everyday style.
Care for Silk-Knotted Jewelry: To maintain the beauty of your hand-knotted piece, follow the "last on, first off" rule—apply perfumes, lotions, and hairspray before putting on your jewelry. To clean, gently wipe the stones with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging in water or using harsh chemicals, as moisture can weaken the silk thread over time. Store your necklace flat to prevent the silk from stretching.

GENERAL CARE TIPS FOR ALL JEWELRY:
- Storage Matters: When not being worn, store your jewelry in a dry, air-tight container. A plastic bag is ideal for this purpose.
- Avoid Water Exposure: All jewelry is waterproof, but it’s not mineral or chemical proof. Minimize exposure to pools, saunas, and beaches. The minerals and chemicals in these environments can cause oxidation.
- Limit Contact with Products: It's best to avoid sunscreens, lotions, oils, soaps, shampoos, conditioners, body washes and perfumes. The chemical additives in these products can affect the metal's finish. It’s always best to remove your pieces if there is a possibility of coming into contact with any additives.
- Remove During Activity: To prevent damage, remove your jewelry before working out or sleeping.
- Handle with Care: Be mindful when handling your jewelry to avoid scratches or impacts.
