2) STABILISED TURQUOISE. Softer natural Turquoise infused under pressure with a clear epoxy resin which permanently hardens the rock. Most of the Turquoise on the market is stabilised.
3) RECONSTITUTED. Lower grade Turquoise is ground into powder, saturated with epoxy resin, dyed and compressed into blocks for cutting.
4) OTHER STONE - DYED. Alternative stones (like Howlite) are dyed to look like Turquoise. Colours tend to look artificial.
5) IMITATION. Plastic or glass which has been dyed to look like turquoise.
