Turquoise ~
Offered here is a large, deluxe cabochon of spiderweb turquoise, from China. This example has wonderfully saturated coloration in strong turquoise blue and spring green, set off by the jet black matrix forming the webs. 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 well rounded dome of 5mm, an elegantly plump catseye shape, and a smooth glossy polish both front and back.
Size: 50X27 mm
Weight: approximately 51 carats
