This turquoise came from the estate of a back-yard jeweler who lived in Globe, AZ and is free-form cabochons, lightly backed. The man (deceased) did his own lapidary work. This turquoise is believed to be stabilized Sleeping Beauty as the next of kin claimed he bought all of his rocks at the Sleeping Beauty store (which was located there in Globe). One of the cabochons (in lot 89, which is the same turq.) was broken open and it looks the same all the way through. Sold as-is, so take a good look. Shipping: There will be a $5 handling / packaging fee for shipping this lot. The actual cost of postage will be added on top of that.
