This 1.30 carat Persian turquoise is a refined example of natural, opaque material, presented in an elegant oval shape with precise dimensions of 10.08 x 4.81 x 3.79 mm, cabochon cut, intense color intensity, and an excellent polish. The greenish blue hue displays the classic robin egg to sky blue tone associated with high quality Persian sources, while the cabochon profile amplifies saturation and provides a smooth reflective surface that highlights the stone’s even color. Clarity for turquoise is assessed differently from transparent gems, and this specimen should be regarded as opaque with minor natural matrix markings that add character rather than detract from value, the surface presentation is clean and uniform, and the excellent polish yields a high luster suitable for fine jewelry settings.
From a provenance and trade perspective, origin matters, and this piece comes from Persia, Iran, a historic source prized by collectors and connoisseurs for its stable and vivid blue turquoise. Importantly, the stone has no enhancement, which is a critical factor for educated buyers seeking natural material whose color and stability stem from original geological conditions rather than dyeing or stabilization. In practical terms, turquoise typically sits in the mid range for hardness, so secure bezel or protective setting choices are recommended for daily wear to preserve the polish and surface integrity. For those commissioning bespoke jewelry or expanding a curated collection, The Natural Gemstone Company offers this turquoise as a responsibly sourced, untreated example that pairs well with both classic and contemporary designs, and its measured proportions make it versatile for rings, pendants, or accent pieces. As a knowledgeable seller, we emphasize documentation of origin and treatment status to support long term value, and we are available to provide additional images, measurements, and setting recommendations to ensure this Persian turquoise meets the expectations of discerning buyers.
