About Turquoise Jewelry
Turquoise is a translucent to matte aluminum phosphate turquoise or green with copper in it. People call this stone the jewel of the millennium. The name “Turquoise Jewelry” comes from the French word turquoise, meaning “Turkish stone,” because the stone first entered Europe from Turkey. The color turquoise was named after the discovery of this stone.
History of Turquoise
The ancient Egyptians used turquoise as both a gemstone and a decorative stone. The tombs of Shah Tutankhamun feature turquoise decorations.
They believed that blue symbolized revival, so they used turquoise for both decoration and superstition.
Middle Americans made turquoise mosaics, and the Chinese used it for decoration. Native Americans also used turquoise in Persian jewelry and decoration.
Some believed turquoise could preserve and care for people. The Tibetans valued it for its healing properties and considered it a valuable gem for centuries.
