5.29 Ct.Tw.Total Carat Weight Cabochon Turquoise Pair from USA

I am pleased to present this exceptional matched pair of natural turquoise cabochons from The Natural Gemstone Company, offered as a fine example of untreated American material. The stones weigh 2.60 carats and 2.69 carats respectively, and both are oval in shape with cabochon cut profiles that emphasize their smooth domes and saturated color. The dimensions are 9.99 x 8.02 x 4.32 mm for the 2.60 carat stone, and 10.03 x 8.06 x 4.54 mm for the 2.69 carat stone, making them very well matched for paired settings. These gems are opaque and display vivid color intensity with an excellent polish that produces lively reflections across their surfaces. Enhancement is none, the stones are natural with no treatments, and their origin is the USA, which is valued by collectors and designers who seek provenance and authenticity.

Visually, this pair reads as a classic, bright blue turquoise with a clean, even saturation that is both vibrant and wearable. The cabochon cut and excellent polish create a soft glow rather than a sharp sparkle, which is exactly what you want from turquoise when you are aiming for that warm, organic look. The solid blue tone will sit beautifully against warm metals such as yellow gold and rose gold, and it will also create an elegant contrast with cool metals like platinum and white gold. For jewelry design ideas, these stones are ideal for a pair of earrings where the matched sizes and shapes will create symmetry and balance, or for a pendant and ring set that carry the same color story. For a modern aesthetic consider simple bezel settings that protect the stone and showcase its color, and for a more artisanal look consider hand engraved bezels or mixed metal accents to highlight the origins and natural beauty. Because they are well matched in both weight and dimensions, the pairing is ready for streamlined production into matched pieces without the need for extensive reworking.

From a collector and care perspective, untreated American turquoise carries both aesthetic and historical value, especially when the material presents such uniformity and polish. At The Natural Gemstone Company we take pride in sourcing material that is natural and free from enhancement, because many collectors and designers prefer untreated stones for their character and long term stability in jewelry. These stones are opaque, which means they are less likely to show internal inconsistencies at a glance, and their cabochon cuts help protect the material in everyday wear. To preserve the stones, avoid prolonged exposure to chemicals, cosmetics, or harsh cleaners, store each stone or finished piece separately to prevent abrasion, and clean gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth. If deeper cleaning is needed, seek professional services that specialize in porous and treated free materials, and avoid ultrasonic or steam cleaning which can be risky for natural turquoise.

If you would like, I can prepare high resolution images from different angles, provide close up views of the polish and surface, and arrange mounting options tailored to your preferred metal and setting style. We can also provide a provenance note detailing the USA origin and confirmation of no enhancement, which many buyers find reassuring for resale or appraisal purposes. As a salesperson who works closely with designers and collectors, I am happy to advise on bezel thickness, prong profiles if desired, and complementary accent stones that will elevate the set while keeping the turquoise as the focal point. Please let me know if you prefer a design preview or an estimate for setting these matched 2.60 carat and 2.69 carat oval cabochons, and I will prepare a personalized recommendation and quote.
