Turquoise chip-shaped beads - imitation.
Turquoise is a valuable and highly popular gemstone, used by humanity as a decorative stone for millennia. Turquoise is treated for two reasons: to enhance its color and to increase its durability. Oiling or coating with a thin wax film improves its color and luster. This treatment is almost a tradition for turquoise. Stabilization: This is a more drastic method of treating turquoise. Stabilization involves covering the stone with various materials such as epoxy resin, plastics, and water glass. Reconstructed Turquoise: This is the most radical treatment for turquoise. It involves bonding very small pieces and dust of turquoise to create a larger stone. Turquoise is one of the most commonly imitated stones. It is sensitive to various chemicals, such as solvents, perfumes, and other cosmetic products. Most jewelry cleaning agents are also unsuitable. Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight will dehydrate it and change its color. The color can also be altered by many of the mentioned chemicals. In the beliefs of all peoples, turquoise is considered a very lucky stone. It is believed that the stone reconciles enemies, calms the anger of its owner, and restores harmony in the family. Turquoise brings love, health, happiness, and success. It is a universal stone for good fortune.
