    I am looking into making some designs that have turquoise in them,
    and am a newby to the jewelry making world. I am aware of the
    differences between the stabilized and natural turquoise, but for
    you jewelers out there, what do you think of the stabilized? Does it
    make that big of a difference when a piece is finished and you go to
    sell it? Do you like using one over the other? I guess what I'm
    asking is what is your overall attitude toward the stabilized?
    Thanks!
