- How can you tell real turquoise?2 Answers1stDibs ExpertAugust 17, 2021You can tell your turquoise is real based on how easily it is to scratch. Howlite, the turquoise imitation is much softer and so will scratch more easily than turquoise.1stDibs ExpertAugust 24, 2021Turquoise is one of the most popular gemstones. One way you can tell the difference between real and fake turquoise is the appearance. Real turquoise should be smooth, and in the fake stones, depending on the material, you can tell where the dye accumulates in the cracks. You can also do the scratch test. If your stone scratches easily, then it's an imitation. Find a variety of turquoise jewelry and other gemstones on 1stDibs.

- Why are pearls so special?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertNovember 14, 2023Pearls are so special because they are rare in nature. They form only when something gets inside an oyster or mussel and causes irritation. The mollusk then secretes substances similar to those found on its shell. These harden around the foreign body to create a pearl.

On 1stDibs, find a diverse assortment of pearl jewelry.
