If you are not a gemologist, then you will hardly be able to distinguish natural turquoise from imitation. In India, most likely, they will sell you howlite, it will be very cheap, but it is not turquoise. In fairness, if a friend asks you to bring a stone from Goa for the sake of economy, then there will be no difference between howlite and turquoise for her. If she just needs a good stone (then such purchases are not made through third parties), then you need to look for a good expensive jewelry store.
You can buy a variety of pearls - from cheap third-rate to very expensive. And you also need to be able to distinguish a fake. If the goal is not to"invest money " or wear these pearls to an appointment at the British Embassy, the one that tourists usually bring to wear as jewelry will do. It will be cheaper than in Russia, but not by much, such pearls (Chinese, Thai, Indian) and in Russia are inexpensive.

As far as I know the best stones, good jewelry stores are in Jaipur. As for the rest, I completely agree with the previous statements.

Correct solution. You won’t find a real stone there so easily, and you can lose your girlfriend.

yes, it is better to take a jeweler in Jaipur. There are entire neighborhoods with shops like this. but, as they correctly wrote, if you do not understand, then you should not even take it. sell a fake and it will be a shame.
we took the silver. I got lucky and it turned out to be real.
