Turquoise is one of the most beautiful gemstones created by nature. It is a soft and porous stone with colors ranging from blue to green, resulting from the presence of either copper or iron accented by black or brown veining. Sleeping Beauty and Kingman turquoise from the Arizona mines in the southwestern United States are the most sought after and valuable of turquoise, but it is also mined in China, Peru, Mexico, Tibet, Siberia, Africa, Australia, and Europe.
Types of turquoise include Sleeping Beauty and stabilized turquoise, chalk turquoise from China, African turquoise, yellow turquoise, white or magnesite turquoise, howlite and mountain jade.
Turquoise is believed to promote health, communication and good fortune, protecting the wearer from evil. It is the traditional birthstone for December and the gemstone for 11th year wedding anniversaries.
