About Turquoise and Turquoise Jewelry

Turquoise is a sky blue stone that's most popular among Native American jewelry. The bright, opaque color adds to other ground colored stones to create a balanced tapestry of heaven and earth. Turquoise jewelry are one of the most spiritual, artistic accessories around, with each one being unique and special in its own way.

The turquoise is also known as skystones with powers of protection, blessing, healing, and prosperity. To the Native Americans, this stone symbolizes wealth and dignity.

Though there are many chemically altered turquoise stones on the market today, the untreated, natural ones, also known as virgin turquoise, still remain most desirable. When they are mined, only a very low percentage is of jewelry quality. Ones you see in the stores are mostly treated to improve hardness.
