The parcel
For NIS-2026-002, the parcel is what the photographs show — nothing more is claimed.
A parcel of polished turquoise cabochons whose colour comes largely from the host rock. The stones run from grey-green to deep green-brown with brown matrix running through them, and the frames include free-form and standard oval and pear shapes.
Polished turquoise cabochons in green and green-brown tones carrying substantial host-rock matrix and brown veining.
Matrix is integral to these stones rather than a surface feature. Some pieces show brown surface discolouration typical of iron-bearing host material. No retouching has been applied.
Partial quantities are drawn at random. This parcel varies visibly stone to stone, so a sample shows the general character of the lot rather than a guaranteed grade.
