A QUICK LESSON ABOUT HOW

TURQUOISE IS SOLD:

Most importantly, turquoise sells by weight.
High Grade turquoise and cabochons sells by the carat or gram.
5 carats = 1 Gram
1 Ounce = 28.3 grams
1 Pound = 453 Grams
Firstly, low to mid-grade rough turquoise nuggets and chunks sells by the pound or kilo (2.2 pounds).
Secondly, high grade turquoise and cabochons sell by the carat or gram.

Thirdly, natural turquoise, which is hard enough for cutting or cabbing, is usually more valuable than stabilized turquoise. Most importantly, natural turquoise is typically too soft, and requires stabilizing. Moreover, stabilization adds costs to natural turquoise.
In conclusion, MOST TURQUOISE comes out of the ground with the CONSTANSISTENCY OF CHALK. Surprisingly, it is estimated that 85% to 90% of ALL turquoise is stabilized, and only 10% to 15% is natural. Most notably, stabilization becomes popular in around 1955.
Most importantly, the common method of stabilization consists of soaking turquoise in resins or epoxies for weeks. As a result, these hardeners permeate and harden the stone. In conclusion, stabilizer hardens the turquoise “chalk,” and both deepens and freezes the color.
Consequently, substantial waste takes place when shaping turquoise into cabochon form. Therefore turquoise’s price per pound is considerably less than the price for finished cabochons.

First of all, we are constantly seeking American turquoise to provide to you! In addition, we specialize in turquoise from Arizona and Nevada. Above all, we are lucky to be in the city that hosts the world’s largest gem and mineral show, the Tucson Gem and Mineral Show. As a result, we are friends with many of the actual turquoise miner’s who extract this beautiful mineral directly from the earth.
