Block turquoise is literally manufactured into a block from which beads and pendants are made. Because of the synthetic material in both types, it is less fragile than natural untreated turquoise and easier to make into beads.</p><p><br /></p><p>This is reconstituted block turquoise. Needless to say, the black veins are not natural:</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://tskies.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/what-is-block-turquoise.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
