I got these beads, just on the off chance that they might be something. They are very hard, though, and can’t be scratched with a steel knife (the steel transfers onto the beads). There are some small black spots but no matrix that I can see. They are the same colour inside and the colour doesn’t come out with acetone. They’re heavy - I think heavier than my real turquoise.
I’m sorry, I have no idea (except don’t think turquoise). Anybody else have an idea?
Welcome to the site!
a picture of the clasp might give another clue
Does the clasp twist shut or is it magnetic?
It’s a screw one - two halves
I would say that necklace was made by a hobbyist, made up of very inexpensive hobby store components and man made beads. That said, if you like it - wear it.
