Sleeping Beauty Turquoise Gemstone Bead Strand
Total length: 19cm
Without removable clips: 17cm
Beads: Sleeping Beauty Turquoise 8x12 nuggets
Sleeping Beauty turquoise is highly desirable due to its classic turquoise blue color. It’s also becoming increasingly rare and valuable following the 2012 closure of its Arizona mine. As a result, there is a lot of fake Sleeping Beauty turquoise on the market. I purchased these beads from a reputable turquoise supplier so I can guarantee they are authentic.
Mohs hardness scale rating of beads: 5-6
The Mohs hardness scale provides you with an indication of how durable the beads will be against scratching over time. The scale is from 1-10 with 1 being softest (talc) and 10 being hardest (diamonds).
Removable clips & jump rings: Sterling silver plated
Other metal components: Sterling silver
Beads may appear brighter in photos.
