Iranian Turquoise (Irani Feroza)

The Iranian Turquoise price is influenced by the color, clarity, treatment, and the cut made on it. The general Iranian Turquoise price per carat starts from USD 4 (INR 350) and can go up to USD 27 (INR 2200). The average Irani Firoza price per carat is USD 12 (INR 1000). Some specimens of extremely high quality can have a final price that shoots way beyond the given references.

• Color:

  The Irani Turquoise stone has been historically known for there rich and intense sky-blue color. The best specimens have a pure blue color without any trace of green. The Irani Feroza price tag for such specimens is the highest, and this value falls as the purity, uniformity, and brilliance of the color of the samples decrease.

• Clarity:

  Turquoise gemstones often have dark criss-cross signs, which is called a matrix. The specimens from Iran have a next to negligible matrix which makes for a perfect sky-blue gemstone. The inclusions and imperfections are also lesser, along with a high degree of luster. These factors increase the gem's clarity, which is why genuine Iranian Turquoise is more valuable than others in general.

• Cut:

  Turquoise is an opaque gemstone with a rating of 5 to 6 on the Mohs scale, giving it fair to good durability. Therefore it is cut in limited shapes, ranging from spherical, teardrop, rectangle, and a few more in both faceting or cabochon style. Being opaque gemstones, the Cabochon cut is frequently used for them. Other cuts are also used, especially when making necklaces, bracelets, etc. A complex cut requires more skill, and so add to the final Irani Turquoise price.

• Treatment:

  About 40% of the Irani Feroza stone produced from the Neyshabur mine of Iran doesn’t have any kind of treatment performed on them and is completely natural. Zachary treatment is the most common treatment for Turquoise, which involves soaking the gemstone in stabilsing mediums like oil, fat, resin, etc., which increases its toughness and resilience to chemicals and other substances while also enhancing its color and luster. This treatment is widely accepted and positively affects the Irani Feroza stone price.

It’s important to note here that only natural Iranian Turquoise can be used for healing or astrological remedies. Artificially enhanced or fake Turquoise doesn’t possess the metaphysical properties of a natural specimen and can only be worn for visual purposes.
