This 100.00 gram parcel of Gobi Desert Turquoise features 15 compact, well-formed pieces ideal for cabbing or inlay. Sourced from the windswept expanse of the Mongolian Gobi—a region once traveled by Silk Road traders—this turquoise is prized for its natural hardness, dense matrix, and historic mystique.
 
Fun Fact: The Gobi Desert is one of the coldest deserts on Earth, where turquoise forms under extreme geologic pressure, making this material as tough as the land it comes from.
