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.

NIce pendant but dinky bale

4/4/2008
The silver in my piece was sturdy. There is no way I can bend it. The turquoise stones are small but are a pretty robin''s egg blue. The pin part is fair. However, I was disappointed that the bale was so dinky. This pieces would have looked nice with a liquid silver necklace, but only a very thin chain can be used with it. I bought this piece on an event price of $49.00, but I would have not kept it if I paid full price.

Very disappointed / Ruth, AZ

Very disappointed in this pin/pendant. Good concept/poor execution. The silver is very thin. The design is not particularly unusual. The best thing about this pin is its large size. I am planning to return this item.

Sooo Sad! / Lisa, MD

3/31/2008
I am so sad about this piece. I really liked it when I saw it presented, but unfortunatly what arrived is no where near as nice as that. The stamping is inconsistant in places, the silver is thin as paper and will bend with one wrong move. The pin is flimsy and poorly constructed, and I would call the turquoise ''specks'', because they are not big enough to even be called a pebble. I love the concept, and I hope they work on something similar in the future, even if it costs more.
