Nice Shine on that Faux Turquoise!

This is a faux turquoise bead that I made. I want you to see the recessed areas and matrix so it looks real. I do not use varnish on my beads like some people do. I used four grits of wet/dry sand paper on this bead, cleaned it and used a jewelers wheel to buff it to this shine. I added some darker clay to this bead and you can see some flecks showing.
