This single opaque turquoise weighs 13.64 carats and is cut into a round cabochon with precise dimensions of 15.58 x 15.65 x 9.41 mm, measured with digital calipers to ensure accuracy. The specimen displays a greenish blue hue of medium intensity, a soft but clear tone that benefits from the high domed profile. The cabochon cut is well proportioned, with a smooth dome and excellent polish that yields even light return across the surface. Natural surface characteristics are minimal, limited to a few small mineral specks and a slight darkening near the girdle that are consistent with untreated Persian material, and the overall visual appeal is one of even color distribution and subtle depth.
No enhancement has been performed on this turquoise, it has not been stabilized, dyed, or treated in any way, and its origin is Persia, Iran, a region historically recognized for some of the most desirable turquoise hues. These factors make this piece suitable for collectors and designers who prioritize natural provenance and untreated material. The 13.64 carat weight and substantial depth are suitable for a variety of jewelry applications, including protective bezel settings for rings, pendants, and bold statement earrings, while the gentle dome also adapts well to cabochon style mounts. Because turquoise is a relatively porous, moderate hardness material, careful mounting and routine care are advised to preserve the polish and color, avoid exposure to household chemicals, strong heat, and prolonged immersion, and refrain from ultrasonic cleaning.
