Description from the seller
Pendant Nishapur Turquoise / Cabochon / new
Set in 925 sterling silver
Includes leather strap
Weight: 11.44 g !!! (weighed without leather strap)
23.9 mm x 19.3 mm x 11.1 mm
New and unworn
The turquoise mineral is a rare hydrated copper-aluminum phosphate from the mineral class of the “Phosphates, Arsenates and Vanadates” with the chemical composition CuAl6(PO4)4(OH)8·4H2O. In place of aluminum, iron as Fe3+ can be incorporated into the crystal structure (diadochy), hence the chemical formula is also often given as Cu(Al,Fe)6(PO4)4(OH)8·4H2O.
Turquoise crystallizes in the triclinic crystal system and is the eponym of a group of minerals with the same structure but different composition, the turquoise group, with the other members faustite, chalkosiderite, aheylite and planerite.
In nature turquoise typically forms in cluster-like or earthy-mass 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. Its characteristic blue‑green color is the source of turquoise’s name.
Turquoise is exclusively processed as a gemstone for jewelry.
