Oops! 😢 Broken, but are they even real turquoise?

Real vs. Fake
#1

I lost these when I moved two years ago, and found them yesterday, broken. :frowning:
I bought them many years ago at a thrift shop, so I don’t know if they are real or not. If they are real, I would love to know a way to salvage them in some way. They are large.

I am not sure what others would recommend but I am sure there has to be a way to make them wearable again. Don’t give up on them.

Normally tab earrings are compressed turquoise, but these look like the genuine real deal!

These could be glued.

@Jason, What type of glue would you recommend?

Use Alpha glue with 600 sandpaper

You might be able to bezel it as well. A good jeweler might be able to do it fairly affordable.
