Sleeping Beauty Turquoise, 5 mm round, unfaceted

Description

5 mm round, unfaceted Sleeping Beauty Turquoise beads.  The beads are typical of the light blue Turquoise gotten from the Sleeping Beauty mine in Globe, Arizona and is considered to be one of the most important turquoise producing mines in the world.    There are approximately 40 beads per strand.

Because stone beads are cut and polished by hand and/or machine-cut, the size of each bead in a strand may vary slightly.  As well, because these beads are natural stone, their color may also vary from one bead to another.
