questions: black in matrix | |||||
Re: Deep in the Matrix….. -- bob | Post Reply | Edit | Forum | Where am I? |
Here is a pic of a ring where a black paste seems covering a rock vein... or is it just assembled bits of turquoise or something else?
I find similar black in beads (from Nepal, genuine colour?)
I love love turquoise, but the more I know the less confident I am.
The Ladakh beads (next set of pictures) I bought beginning 90's and the sellers were emerging their beads in oil every morning, to give them a shine and make them more appealing to the customers. Unfortunately this gives them a saturated mat brownish look. It is what it is and it is part of their history now.
