They look amazing, cant wait to see them after tumbling as nd polishing.
Top of the line service and helpfulness. Highly recommend
I’m new to rock tumbling, but I found the lot I received comprised three distinct colors. Light green, a muted blue and a dark blue. This lot was supposedly from Peru, I would think the rocks would have been more similar. The dark blue stones were much harder than the others and I suspicious they are not turquoise. The other two colors stones had other materials in a matrix, looking more what I suspected turquoise to look like.
I haven't tumbled them yet, but looking at the quality of the stones received I have no doubts the outcome will be nothing short of phenominal.
Was pleased with the quality/color/attributes of my raw rocks. I trust the company to deliver as described.
