Description from the seller

Ring Nishapur turquoise / cabochon / new

Set in 925 sterling silver

Weight: 5.50 g

18.6 mm x 14.3 mm

New and unworn

Ring size:

U 54
UK N
US 6.8
FR 14
Inner diameter: 17.2 mm

The mineral turquoise is a relatively rare hydrated copper-aluminum phosphate from the mineral class of "Phosphates, Arsenates and Vanadates" with the chemical composition CuAl6(PO4)4(OH)8·4H2O. In place of aluminum, iron can be incorporated into the crystal structure as Fe3+ (diadochy), which is why the chemical formula is also often given as Cu(Al,Fe)6(PO4)4(OH)8·4H2O.

Turquoise crystallizes in the trisystem and provides the name for a group of minerals with the same structure but different composition, the turquoise group, with further members hypov: Faustite, Chalkosiderite, Ayelite, and Planerite.

In nature, turquoise usually forms botryoidal or earthy-massive mineral aggregates. Crystals visible to the naked eye are very rare and then only a few millimeters in size with a prismatic to needle-like habit. The color turquoise owes its name to its characteristic blue-green color.

Turquoise is exclusively processed into gemstones for jewelry stones.

Shipping as insured registered mail.
