Turquoise owes its texture to its structure and composition. Turquoise is Cryptocrystalline, the aggregate of microscopic crystals that form a solid mass. If the crystals are packed closely together, the material is less porous, so it has a finer texture. Fine-textured turquoise has an attractive, waxy luster when it’s polished. Turquoise with a less-dense crystal structure has higher porosity and coarser texture, resulting in a dull luster when it’s polished. In turquoise, low porosity and fine texture are more valuable than high porosity and coarse texture. Turquoise is generally embedded in its host rock. Turquoise deposits usually form in iron-rich limonite or sandstone. Limonite creates dark brown markings in turquoise, while sandstone creates tan markings. These markings are remnants of the host rock within the turquoise, seen as surface veins similar to the web like pattern called Matrix. Order Customized Turquoise Stone Ring Online at best Price.
