The price listed is for the full lot -- meaning all the stones shown in the photo. You are purchasing exactly what you see. Each listing is photographed and priced as a complete set.

We carry both natural and stabilized turquoise, and every listing clearly states which it is. Natural turquoise is untreated and unaltered -- pure stone, nothing added. Stabilized turquoise has been hardened with a resin to improve durability -- a common and widely accepted practice in the industry.

Some are backed and some are not. Every listing accurately indicates whether the stone is backed. If you have questions about a specific stone, feel free to reach out.

Every cabochon is one of a kind and listed individually or as a lot, with a US dime (18mm) included for size reference. We do not take custom cut orders at this time, but new inventory is added regularly. Email us at sales@cuttingedgeturquoise.com if you are looking for something specific.

A lapidary is a craftsperson who cuts, shapes, and polishes gemstones. Greg Cordova, owner of Cutting Edge Turquoise, is a second-generation lapidary with over 15 years of experience cutting turquoise and other natural stones by hand.

A cabochon is a gemstone shaped and polished with a flat bottom and a smooth, rounded top -- as opposed to a faceted stone. Turquoise cabochons are cut from natural turquoise rough and are widely used in Native American and artisan jewelry making.

Turquoise is a porous stone -- keep it away from chemicals, lotions, and prolonged moisture. Store cabochons individually or wrapped in soft cloth to prevent scratching, and wipe clean with a dry or slightly damp soft cloth only.
