Known as Birthstones of December, turquoise can be solid or transparent, and a turquoise necklace of pearls gives an iridescent, whimsical effect.

as a gift to my girlfriend, i think it would be unique and fitting to her style.
so i need to find small (like the size of nerds candies for instance) gold nuggets. REAL gold not anything fake. i already found similarly sized turquoise just need to find the GOLD! also how much is gold actually worth per ounce/gram whatever…is it more when its a natural nugget or less? i have about 1000 bucks to spend.
i know this is not an appropriate section for this question but i couldnt find one that suited it where it would get ANY answers, more people are in this section.

You could check with a local jewler, they some times buy gold and use it to fix broken jewlery, be aware of the cost up around or over $1000/troy ounce!!!!
