    These earrings need a good cleaning. I’ll give them some TLC when I have some time. I like the colour and the simple design but I am not too sure if they are turquoise or glass. I believe that both materials were used in Mexican jewelry. I am more inclined to say that they are glass.

    Thanks for looking:)

      Pretty :) .... I've seen tiny chips of turquoise fused together (resin of some kind) and then cut and polished into larger stones. So I would say real.

      I would say they are medium; about 1.5 cm :)
