Normally Priced at an estimated $500 or more

A luscious and luxurious chunky gemstone necklace from India, handmade with each semi-precious nugget strung on thin wire string. Complimented by shiny sterling silver beads. The Gemstones are perfectly smooth and polished with only one having a minor chip.

The turquoise nuggets come with only moderate color change from use & handling, the discoloring is caused by anything from the oil on your skin, cosmetics, sun tan lotion, any oil based products you use, anything chemical based like hairspray or from well intentioned attempts to clean them but using incorrect methods .

(If do it yourself cleaning instructions sounds better then paying high prices for a jeweler cleaning contact our customer support and we will gladly assist. Same results no expensive cleaning bill.)

They can also become discolored naturally. This occurs as the gemstone ages & reacts in response to embedded & left over elemental materials from the extraction process.

Also, for some the the inclusion of discoloration and chipping actually enhances the natural and subtle earthy gemstone accent people seek in natural real turquoise in order to compliment there overall style aesthetic .

So given everything that can effect them I would say these gemstones are in fairly excellent condition.

Make sure you view all the photos the last is a lovely picture of the clasp one of the most decorated clasps I have seen.
