3mm Chinese Turquoise Heishi. 15.75 inch strand.

These pictures represent the actual batch you are buying from.

This is Chinese turquoise at its best; beautiful blue with some black matrix. Blue Chinese turquoise is very beautiful in its own way, unlike North American turquoise, even the bluest Chinese turquoise still has a tiny hint of mint color that makes it so delicately vibrant. These pieces are a beautiful greenish blue with just the right amount of matrix. Perfect for layering, or as hoop earrings.

This batch of turquoise is stabilized, but not dyed. Most turquoise needs some form of treatment due to its softness, and there are lots of different processes. There's a "clear-treat" in which acrylic resin is applied but no color is added, this batch reflects that treatment.
