Old stock natural Hubei Turquoise 10x16mm light blue with dark matrix tube beads. 10" strand. b4-tur502

These vintage Hubei Turquoise tube beads, measuring 10x16mm, have a matte finish in a light blue color with a brown/black matrix. They showcase their natural beauty with minimal stabilization, and you can see a few subtle shifts from light blue to soft green as they age. The strand is 10 inches long and includes 16 beads, which vary slightly in length but are well-matched in width. Acquired in the 1970s, this strand has been a treasured part of our collection for many years. We hope these lovely beads will find a new home in a beautiful necklace.
