At The Natural Gemstone Company we are delighted to introduce a single, beautiful Persian turquoise that combines classic charm with reliable, natural quality. This piece weighs 0.93 carat, and it has an elegant oval shape that measures 8.09 millimeters by 5.93 millimeters by 2.52 millimeters, making it ideal for a delicate ring, a refined pendant, or a pair of matching earrings. The gem is opaque, and it is fashioned in a smooth cabochon cut that enhances the gem feeling of depth and warmth. The color reads as a true blue with a medium intense color intensity, and the surface shows an excellent polish that yields a soft, satiny reflection. Origin Persia, Iran, this turquoise carries the heritage and geological character that collectors and makers appreciate, and because it shows no enhancement, it is a genuine example of what nature produced without additives.
From a gemological perspective this turquoise presents a harmonious balance of tone and texture, with color that is evenly distributed across the small, domed face. The cabochon cut was chosen deliberately to showcase the gem without facets, in order to emphasize the solid color and the smooth, tactile surface. The polish is excellent, which means the dome reads clean and luminous under light, and minor natural surface patterning or subtle clouding that may be visible contributes to the stone personality rather than distracting from it. This piece is untreated, it has no enhancement, and it is therefore stable in appearance provided it is worn and cared for as a natural turquoise should be. Its modest size and nearly one carat weight make it versatile for classic, minimalist designs, as well as for more imaginative contemporary pieces where a quality natural turquoise center is desired.
For jewelry design and setting recommendations, this cabochon turquoise is exceptionally well suited to a protective bezel mount, which will showcase the smooth dome while securing the stone from lateral impact, and a low profile bezel will keep the balance between wearability and visibility. The oval footprint and the three dimensional depth will sit nicely in a ring that is sized for daily wear, and the dimensions make it a pleasing option for a pendant that hangs easily on a chain, or for a pair of small drop earrings paired with fine metalwork. Turquoise tones respond beautifully to both warm and cool metals, brass and yellow gold will emphasize the ancient and sun kissed aspects of the stone, while sterling silver and white gold will create a crisp, modern contrast to the sky blue, and rose gold will add a soft, romantic complement. Consider pairing the stone with small accent diamonds, moonstone, or cultured pearls, each accessory enhancing different personality notes without overwhelming the tranquil blue.
As you consider this Persian turquoise from The Natural Gemstone Company, keep in mind a few practical care details that will preserve its natural beauty for generations. Avoid prolonged exposure to household chemicals, perfumes, and cleaning solvents, and do not use ultrasonic or steam cleaners, a gentle wipe with a soft cloth after wearing will remove surface oils and restore the satin sheen. When the piece is not in use, store it apart from harder gemstones and metals that could abrade the polished surface, and consider a padded pouch or a lined jewelry box for everyday storage. The provenance Persia, Iran contributes both historical appeal and a certain collectible value, and the fact that this 0.93 carat oval turquoise is natural with no enhancement makes it a reliable choice for connoisseurs and designers who favor authenticity.
