These are crap pics, i apologize. Origins of these are that we found them in my FIL’s basement glued to a piece of parchment or wax paper, inside a long narrow old chocolates box, in 1997. We had them ~20 years before i recently bothered to try to get them unstuck from the wax paper. Still working on getting the adhesive off - looks like old dried mucilage, rubbing each piece with diluted dish soap and a paper towel. none of these are backed. My estimation is they had been in FIL’s possession 20 years or more. the blue-ish stones look stabilized to me, but they are hard and glassy. the green/brown ones are really more interesting to me, even though i usually prefer true blues. Wondering if they are persian or chinese. it seems odd to me that these are all in such uniform shapes and sizes. i dont’ have a lot of experience dealing with unset turquoise cabs. worthless?
I appreciate your wisdom and time!
