Somehow got that sentence mixed up. I have the exact same sample card that Jamey has, indeed from that same shop. I also have a few other sample cards with tuquoise coloured glass 'stones' on them. The Czechs refer to all cabochons and facetted glass pieces as 'stones', no matter if they are made to resemble actually stone or not. In that same antique shop, where the owner speaks no English and almost no German, he once prevented me from buying a big bag of what I thought were beads. He said: 'Stein', meaning stone in German, indicating that they had no holes. The first sample card has only the the turquoise colours, the other has pieces that I presume are intended to similate jade, malachite, tortoise shell and at the bottom also some type of quartz, carnelian, tortoise shell again and two types of agate.
