Product information
The first time you wear a turquoise gemstone, it becomes clear why it has played such an important role in the jewelry fashions of many of the world's great civilizations.
From the Persians to the ancient Egyptians to the Native Americans, its striking blue tint with rich varieties of brown and black veining - also known as the matrix - has caught the eye of many discerning lovers of high quality gemstones. Its visual appeal is so great that it has been the source of many spiritual belief systems over the centuries.
The semi-precious gemstone, appointed as a birthstone for December together with zircon and tanzanite, has been found in practically every corner of the globe. Here are some of the most fascinating facts that this historic, widespread mining has revealed about the turquoise we all know and love.
The bright appearance of pure turquoise is so pleasing to the eye that it has been appointed an official color in its own right - a privilege that no other gemstone in the world has had to this day.
It is instantly recognisable and perfectly versatile, making it the kind of accessory you can wear with almost any outfit.
The Himalayan ground in which turquoise is found by Tibetan miners gives it a distinctive greenish color, which makes Tibetan turquoise world famous and much desired. Conversely, the gemstones found in the Persian and Egyptian mines are much bluer in color, with less obvious veining on their surface.
The variations in color and veining around the world arise because of the different levels of copper and aluminium present in the water that flows through the rocks in which it is formed.
Turquoise has been revered by the people of the Himalayas for thousands of years thanks to the belief that it came from the sky above.
Its attractive blue-green color is believed to bring protection to everyone who wears it, which is why children in Tibet are given the gemstones in their early years, to keep them safe during their journeys through life.
The common white mineral howlite is very absorbent and can be dyed to resemble any colored gemstone that has similar banding, so it is commonly used by disreputable dealers to create fake turquoise stones.
Fortunately you can easily tell the difference between dyed howlite and genuine turquoise. All you need is a cotton bud and a little acetone.
Dip the bud in the colourless liquid and rub it gently over the surface of the stone for a few seconds. If this removes any blue-green dye from the stone, it is clear that it is in fact howlite and not turquoise.
Ancient beliefs hold that turquoise changes its color depending on the likelihood of coming danger for the person wearing it, and this was considered a sure way of knowing when to look for cover or protection or to make a change in your life.
Romantic as this may seem, the more modern understanding is that prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, cosmetics and heat can cause the color of a turquoise gemstone to change.
This can be avoided with care and by cleaning your gemstone with a soft cloth from time to time, taking care to wash it with water only, so as not to affect the vitality of the porous stone
Dive straight into the soft quiet sky-blue waters and cleanse the calm energy while saying “yes” to everything that turquoise has to bring to the table.
This beautiful blue stone brims with all the shades of the ocean, connecting with the throat chakra so that you can speak your truth and make sure that your inner critic stays pinned down.
With natural shades, pale and clear as the milky way, this sacred stone is steeped in shades of sacred blue-green, to bring an extra layer of spiritual cleansing.
Blue is the color that calms the soul, the one that reminds us of the flow of water, of the cleansing energy of the earth and of a surge of energy that can come from deep down.
With a name from old French meaning Turkish, perhaps in connection with its rich Persian history, the blue turquoise stone aims to cleanse negative energy and bring luck.
Bringing many benefits to everyone who loves and wears turquoise howlite, this special crystal feels most at home when it tempts you to let your true voice flow.
This is a stone that brings luck, heals old wounds and in general weaves more life-affirming richness into your world. Here are a few more advantages of bringing the calm essence of blue into your life ...
As a throat chakra stone, turquoise helps to heal all the problems in this area. If you have a sore throat, breathing problems, allergies, migraines and other physical complaints that pass through the ears, nose, throat and lungs, then Turquoise is always ready to lend a hand.
Turquoise works wonders for your well-being everywhere, but it is as a healing stone for your emotional and mental health that it shines most. Its healing energy is connected with calm and peace - just like stepping into the cooling shades of still waters on a hot day.
For those who feel burnt out or as if their spirit has been weighed down, this stone knows how to heal these traps of life effectively, so that you can shake yourself off and step into your own space instead of trying to stuff all your feelings into a box.
There is no denying that turquoise is a tonic for the spirit. It works closely with our throat chakra, which is at the root of our communication and of the feeling of being heard - both of which add to our sense of self-worth.
A blocked throat chakra can lead to many problems both in the way we speak to ourselves and in how we communicate with the world.
If you struggle to open your throat chakra, you may have trouble being heard and valued, you may find it difficult to keep your boundaries clear and you may feel that the people you like are holding you in place.
As a stone that connects with the throat chakra and invites it to flow, turquoise howlite aims to bring your truth to the surface.
As far as the zodiac connections that use turquoise are concerned, those who fall under the sign of Sagittarius will fall hard for the bright blue colouring. Sagittarians are often positive and optimistic and full of curiosity. They love to dream and to reach high and can be great fun to be around.
With all that abundance comes fast movement, and that can sometimes lead to Sagittarians not being so good at communicating. This quick and frenetic star sign can be too direct and outspoken for some people, which leads to a level of friction.
Since turquoise is a wise old stone that leans strongly on calm and communication, it may be just the tool for balancing that.
