Natural Turquoise Beads – Guide To Online Buying

Turquoise beads are a rage with women across the world, thanks to their classy yet bright appearance. Green turquoise beads are used for making a variety of jewelry. They are stringed into necklaces and bracelets, fashioned into hairclips, and used even on shoes, belts, clothing, and bags. Contrary to fashion belief, turquoise beads will not clash with colors except green, white and black. In fact, a chunky necklace made of these beads can complement any outfit if you wish to make a bold and unique style statement.

 

Turquoise beads are expensive compared to synthetic beads. This is because each bead has to be manually fashioned from turquoise stones. Imagine shaping a stone into dozens of tiny beads of the same size! The labor and skill needed for creating these beads adds value to them. However, turquoise beads are more affordable compared to pearls or precious and semi-precious stones.

 

Buying Guide:

 

1. Chinese turquoise beads are the products most in demand today. These beads are available in a variety of shapes and sizes. They are stringed into many arrangements. However, most of the Chinese turquoise beads are machine made, and do not always carry proof of genuineness.

 

1. If you are looking for something rare and genuine, the heishi beads crafted by some Native American communities are a good choice. These beads are expensive, because turquoise is hard to shape into beads. The raw materials are expensive; the artisan needs to put in hours of labor at his cutting and grinding machine before a few dozen beads are shaped. Most of the raw products have to be discarded, because untreated turquoise chips easily during processing, no matter how skilled the artisan.

 

1. Most of the turquoise beads you see cannot be called “natural” in the strictest sense. Because turquoise is so brittle in its natural form, some amount of treatment is necessary to make it more stable (except the heishi, mentioned in (2)). If you are not sure about the quality of beads, ask for a certificate of authenticity from the seller.

 

Chinese turquoise beads, handcrafted beads, green turquoise beads, treated beads, untreated beads – the choices are many. All you have to do is be a little alert when shopping for these beads online.
