  • These are wonderful.  The Saudi bedouin turquoise pieces are among my favorite jewels.  I have five that I wear as a necklace by winding a silver chain through the loops.  Congratulations!!

  • These are amazing. The turquoise is just so raw and wonderful. It's a good idea to string them up and wear them.  I'll try that.

  • Here is a picture of how I wear mine:  https://ethnicjewels.ning.com/photo/saudi-arabian-bedouin-turquoise-...  I gave them a gentle cleaning, but they are exquisite uncleaned as well.  You are very lucky, these are quite rare and I think only the third or so example on this site.  Thank you for sharing them.
