Turquoise ~
Offered here is a splendid 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 many of the webs. It looks similar to the old Royston turquoise I chose decades ago for use in my own jewelry. My all time favorite, by far. And the best part is, this finished stone is comparable in price to the old Royston 50 years ago! 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 6mm, a plump designer drop shape, and a nice glossy polish both front and back.
