Description

  • Turquoise tapered tubes which vary slightly in size within the strand from 22-30mm long by 10-14mm diameter. 
  • I think if these as "wild" as opposed to "domesticated" turquoise beads, no primping or processing here, just the natural stone, proud to be exactly what it is. 
  • Roughly the size and shape of dZi beads, these vintage (or older) natural Tibetan turquoise beads came to us from Chinatown antique store that was closing.
  • Color varies from a light to medium blue/green turquoise with bold black matrix.
  •  Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and these are not to everyone's taste, but if natural, powerful earth energy is what you are looking for, these beads have it.
  • Turquoise gets its blue color from copper and its green from iron
  • It's a relatively soft stone that has been treasured around the world since 5000BC.
