Real Kingman turquoise, one hour from the Laughlin strip.

The drive from Laughlin

From the Laughlin casino strip on Casino Drive, take the bridge across the Colorado River into Bullhead City, then pick up Highway 68 east. Sixty miles, about an hour. The road climbs through the Black Mountains and drops you into the Hualapai Valley right at Kingman. Easy half-day trip.

Why come to us instead of buying in Laughlin

The shops along Casino Drive and at the resort retail floors carry turquoise jewelry, but very little of it is real Kingman material. Most is stabilized Chinese stone or dyed howlite, marked up for the casino crowd. We buy from trusted regional sources. The difference is what you'd expect.

What's worth the drive for

• Turquoise rings — single-stone, cluster, or custom builds
• Necklaces and pendants — including squash blossom statement pieces
• Bracelets and cuffs — heavy-gauge silver, set with real stones
• Earrings — studs, dangles, hoops
• Indigenous artisan pieces — signed Native craftsmanship
• Custom design — bring us a stone, we'll build the rest

Plan the trip

We're at 407 E Beale St in Kingman, AZ, open Monday through Saturday 11 AM to 5 PM. Call ahead at (928) 263-1502 if you want us to pull specific pieces or make time at the bench for a custom consultation.

If you're in Bullhead City on the Arizona side of the river, you're already halfway here.
