Turquoise ~
Offered here is a large, deluxe cabochon of top notch spiderweb turquoise, from China. This one has absolutely GORGEOUS spiderwebbing, and excellent contrast. The bright sky blue coloration is accentuated by edgings of rich olive green, set off by the jet black matrix forming the webs. This turquoise very much reminds me of the old Royston turquoise I chose for my own jewelry decades ago, and it's actually priced lower than the Royston was, even way back then! No doubt this material has been stabilized by some hardening process, as is most modern turquoise, but I don't believe it has been subjected to artificial coloring of any kind. It polished like a dream, and will wear wonderfully, without changing over the years. The cab has a beautifully rounded dome of 5mm, a fat designer 'flame' shape, and a smooth glossy polish both front and back.
