Introduction to Turquoise

Turquoise is a copper- and aluminum-rich phosphate mineral. Its name comes from the French word "turquois", meaning "Turkish", as it was first introduced to Europe by Turkish traders. Known for its distinctive sky blue, green or blue-green color, turquoise is one of the world's oldest and most beloved gemstones. A turquoise with a high degree of porcelain has a lustrous appearance, and the more you play with it, the better the color of the paste will look.

Turquoise is significant in many places and is considered a sacred stone by many cultures. Ancient Egypt used turquoise in the jewelry and amulets of the pharaohs, such as the famous mask of Tutankhamun, the Persians believed that turquoise could bring happiness and prosperity and set it in weapons and armor, and turquoise has great religious and spiritual value in Buddhism, especially in Tibetan Buddhism.

How to distinguish whether the green pine is dyed or baked?

If the green pine dyed by glue injection is exposed to purple light, it will react with purple light.
In the case of discoloration, if it is a plastic product or a green pine of an injection product, it cannot be discolored. Gradual process without discoloration.
Feeling to the touch, no cold jade feeling
Whether or not the green pine is pulverized cannot be used as a way to distinguish the authenticity of the green pine, because if the green pine is from the original mine, it will also be pulverized, but the relative gram price will be much cheaper.

Most of the glue-injected turquoise will have a fluorescent reaction under the irradiation of purple light. The fluorescent reaction is shown in the picture above, which looks like a high-porcelain high-blue turquoise. In fact, it is a counterfeit that has been injected with glue. Of course, we all know that jade products will be sealed with a layer of glue at the end, which has strengthened the shape of the beads produced by car grinding. But like this kind of green pine that will have a fluorescent reaction, it is a micro-qin product. Turquoise is a very rare and precious ore because of its high value.
