I have what I consider to be an antique turquoise necklace. It belonged to a woman who was a missionary, well traveled, and I considered her to be quite stylish.
The clasp is marked "silver" on the back. I haven’t polished it, I kind of like the patina!
So I attempted Google Lens, but the information was too generic. I tried looking up how to analyze turquoise stones. They talked about the color and spider webbing included in the stone. Then referred to some stones being treated. The necklace is strung with individual knots between each stone, and has some hefty weight to it - I don't believe they are plastic! But I've been wrong before. Hahaha
I have owned it since 1993, and have always been curious about it. And will still continue to be curious about it.
