4.2-4.8mm green Chinese Turquoise Rounds. 16 inch strand.

These pictures represent the actual batch you would be buying from.

Beautiful Mojave green turquoise from Anhui, China. Gorgeous shades of green. These rounds will make beautiful multilayered strands or as accents. The bright green looks good on any skin-tone. These strands contain some matrix a which are often preferred by many people for its added character. The green in turquoise is a result of either iron impurities (replacing aluminum) or dehydration. Rounds take more material to make than other shapes larger in size, which makes them more valuable than most shapes. 

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.
