Turquoise Jewelry – Inspiring Designers to Create Art

There are several stones that have been known to man such as pearls, diamonds, coral, emeralds, topaz and ruby, but the cheer and happiness that a turquoise brings cannot be overstated.

This unique gem is often sought after to use for art, jewelry and trade. The most unique feature of this stone is its gorgeous color; it ranges from pale sky blue to a green. The copper in the stone gives it a blue undertone, and the iron in it gives it a greenish undertone. The combination of these colors gives this stone another name “a piece of sky”. Due to its wonderful color, this stone makes a great statement piece for any person. Apart from a beautiful look, this stone is also considered to develop inner calm and ward off depression, and even bring about good fortune.

Some may find genuine turquoise jewelry to be a little expensive, but there are several clever imitations in the market to choose from. Thus, it is important to know how to differentiate between the genuine and fake stones. While you wear Turquoise Jewelry, it is very important to remove it before taking a bath or coming into contact with water. It should be carefully stored in a separate container and wrapped in a tissue paper or a soft cloth.
