About stabilized turquoise...
Moisture, skin oils and
environmental factors can change the color of turquoise jewelry if left
untreated. But stabilizing turquoise helps preserve the stone's normal color.
Natural, mined turquoise nuggets are heated at a very low temperature for about
a week, slowly drawing out moisture without damaging the texture. The stones are
then placed into acrylic or polymer chemicals to replace water molecules. This
stabilizes the stone and keeps its beauty and value intact.
