Natural Sonoran Gold turquoise from the Cananea region of northern Mexico, featuring 6–7mm freeform nugget shapes with vibrant greens, blues, and warm golden-brown matrix. Zachery treated for enhanced durability while preserving authentic appearance.

Unlike traditional vein-deposit turquoise, Sonoran Gold forms as individual nuggets within clay deposits, creating organic shapes with dynamic color variation that often appears within a single bead. This larger calibrated size makes it ideal for bold statement pieces, focal beads, and substantial strung designs.

These strands are offered as matched production material for jewelers and manufacturers who require consistent working quality across multiple strands for repeatable designs.

What You Should Know

About the Treatment: This turquoise has been Zachery treated. The Zachery process is an industry-standard stabilization method that fills natural porosity in the stone to improve durability and resistance to wear. It does not involve dyes or artificial color enhancement—the green, blue, and golden tones you see are the stone's natural coloration. This is genuine turquoise that has been responsibly enhanced for practical jewelry use, not untreated natural turquoise.

About Matched Material: These strands are sold as production-grade material, not individually hand-selected collector pieces. All strands come from the same quality run to ensure consistency for manufacturing work. You will see natural variation in color intensity, matrix pattern, and exact nugget shape from bead to bead and strand to strand—this is normal and expected in genuine turquoise, even within matched lots.

About Sonoran Gold Supply: Sonoran Gold is a relatively newer turquoise source compared to historic American mines like Sleeping Beauty or Kingman. The material is mined in limited quantities as individual nuggets rather than continuous veins, which means supply can be inconsistent. Availability and color characteristics may vary over time as new pockets are discovered or existing sources are depleted.

What This Is Not: This is not composite turquoise, reconstituted turquoise, or dyed howlite. It is genuine natural turquoise that has been stabilized for durability.

No author or publisher provided in the book. Reads, appears, and presents it self like an AI generated high High School project. Most importantly I returned it.

This is an excellent read for anyone ignorant of the history of Slavery in the United States. It is this account that jolted the abolitionist movement that would later lead to the emancipation proclamation. It is a quick and powerful read of our shameful pass. But it is necessary for us to learn our pass to move forward.

Skip the introductions and go right to the narrative
Let's face it. Most of the history I read is written by white people. Some things need to be read in the "first person" and this is one of them. Not only is it a landmark book (not just for it's time but for all time), it is still easy to read, believable, compassionate to all (including slave owners) and completely gripping. It is not too brutally descriptive to be disturbing to any older kids or teens I know, and it is a patient, instructive and compelling story that I believe could still be a powerful, memorable and life changing read for anyone. Personal Note: I went to Maryland public schools in the 70's and early 80's. This was not on my required reading list. I wish it had been, but then maybe I would have hated it. The story of Frederick Douglas is to me overwhelming. The indictment of Southern Christianity is also particularly grievous. I do feel like I'm beginning to get a sense of the longtime North - South cultural divide as a matter of regional . . . religious . . . and economic ... pride. Misc Notes: 1. Brer Rabbit - in the intro to my book - Robert O'Meally mentions Brer Rabbit and Disney's now banned (and well censored) in the USA "Song Of The South" movie (think "Zip-A-De-Do-Da") - I don't have any wisdom on this but Brer Rabbit is a vaguely forbidden character in our country, as is Bugs Bunny, who the writer indentifies as a modern day Brer Rabbit. I always liked Bugs Bunny, but you don't see these cartoons around. I have an older African American friend who asked me if I could find a copy of "Song of the South" which he had fond memories of watching in the movie theater as a kid. Well I couldn't . . . 2. In my appendix, there is mention of pro slavery arguements of the 1840's. One is to the effect of "Slavery itself doesn't hurt slaves . . . its the abuse of slavery by slaveholders that hurts slaves." Hmmm, that sounds familiar . . .

An essential American autobiography
As the title implies, this short work is the narrative of Frederick Douglass, an escaped slave. He wrote it by himself, a significant fact in that his prose is so eloquent and his pathos so powerful that it seems impossible for a former slave to have composed it. In this short autobiography, Douglass recounts his life as a slave, and details some of the horrors and atrocities perpetuated on slaves by their fiendish overseers, most of whom Douglass portrays as downright evil. More than just a narrative of his life, Douglass also gives an account of how the desire to be free grew and began to burn within his bosom, and how he grew to hate that horrible institution. Above all, this is a story of a slave learning that he is, in fact, a human being. The significance of this book cannot be overestimated. In it, Douglass effectively dispels a number of popular myths about slaves and slaveholders, and forever changes the way the reader (especially one who lived while slavery still existed) looks at slavery. The theme of this book is very simple: slavery is wrong. It is evil, it is cruel, and, despite what many people thought at the time, the slaves know how cruel it is. Douglass cites several examples of the horrible treatment slaves received, one of them being separation of families. "It is a common custom...to part children from their mothers at a very early age" So it was with Douglass and his own mother. Douglass writes in a very eloquent style, and this contributes to the power of this work. Many people who thought blacks were inferior in intelligence were shown to be sadly mistaken with the coming of Frederick Douglass, a man both educated and refined. It may be said that the book is not entirely fair, for it is decidedly anti-slavery, but it is undoubtedly true for most cases nonetheless. Most of the overseers in Douglass's narrative are demonic and sadistic, but when a good overseer comes along (such as Freeland), he is fair in his treatment of him. One can imagine the fuel this book gave to the abolitionist fire, and it is not difficult to see why Douglass had such an impact on both North and South. This is, in my opinion, a definitive work, in that it shows the horrible institution of slavery in all its barbaric nature, and does it from a firsthand point of view, that of a former slave. This book was a tremendous contribution, both for the light it shed on slavery in general, and for proving that blacks were not intellectually inferior by nature, but instead were "transformed into...brute[s]" at the hands of their overseers. This is a great book, essential for anyone wanting to study the Civil War era or wanting to gain a firmer understanding of slavery.
