Is this piece of turquoise worth pairing with 14k

I’ve had this bead forever I’m not sure where I picked it up. I’ve started pairing my nicer beads with 14k. I’m just not sure about the value of this bead. If anyone has any ideas I would appreciate it. Thank you. Cherie

This is a good looking stone, blue with black spider web matrix. It is always difficult to tell the quality of a stone from an image, but we see rough come in ranging from $50 a pound to over a $1000. I wouldn’t hesitate putting this on gold.

Thank you Jason. The top pics were in direct sunlight and lthe last pic was indirect light. Do you have any idea if it is American turquoise? I appreciate your time and any info that you can offer. Cherie

I would call this Kingman Turquoise.
