The sale is for 50 pounds of genuine turquoise cuts and so called “scraps”. Each bucket is Sunbell “Corinthian” factory left overs - mixed heavily with “tons” of other Bell and Maisel Indian Trading Post larger slices, larger cuts, and even crazy high end natural and stable nuggets, circa 1957 to 1979! I take one of these Corinthian “smalls” buckets, and I pour half out. Then I fill it with nuggets, natural cuts, bigger slices, treats and treasures like you see here! The slices are often less than and rarely over 1/8 inch thick, so they definitely almost all need backing to cut, but they are worth it! Yes it’s scrap. But it’s the most rare turquoise mines you can find, and a huge portion of it is good for cabochons small to medium. I screen and sell everything from dime to quarter size (sometimes larger) to keep it usable. That’s what I sell and I make composite from the tiniest. You’ll love it!

🔔No enhancements or altering. Genuine.
Any genuine Turquoise of true quality is getting rare. For years, American turquoise has been getting more and more expensive overseas and in the Eastern US. Now the West Coast demand is ridiculous. Tucson, Albuquerque, and Santa Fe pricing is now ridiculous. It is also apparent that China has stopped exporting turquoise! The value of well cut Arizona and Nevada blue and green cabochons is sky-rocketing! These are some of the best colors and matrix we have ever released! No dyes or enhacenements. These colors came from God. Stabilized in the 1970s by Sunbell. Smalls to mediums. You’ll love the quality. Natural too!

🔔Don’t believe the hype. Beware!
There are lots of ads on Instagram and claiming to represent Nevada, Arizona, NM and other American turquoise. Also a lot of folks claim to have similar materials. Be aware that most of that is fake sourcing, and often is extremely low-grade material only. If anyone claims to have our old Sunbell material, please be sure they trace back to us by verifying with us! JT MICHELSON, the original owner of Bell, who personally bought Maisel Company completely out in 1972 (all turquoise and all stock) and had this turquoise as owner of Bell/Sunbell, has joined our company. We are the only ones with authority to certify this sourcing! Be careful of any sources you buy any turquoise from, foreign material masquerading is often processed with illegal, and or or poisonous industrial stablizers. The same is true for a lot of the Battle Mountain Nevada 8 - domestic processors! So be careful. And much of the so called Arizona turquoise presented online is absolute garbage. Know that our company has custody and control of all our turquoise - published, and documented, back to the mines! This is a must know in your Turquoise shopping! Only buy from “Bonafide Dealers” like Turquoise Kings or like ReBell, who publish their mineral custody and control history, and openly show concern for safety in processes, who trace back to the American mines, or legit collections that they originated from.
