Set in Sterling Silver with Sterling ear wire.

Turquoise has a rich history, valued by ancient civilizations for its vibrant blue color and perceived protective properties. It’s been mined for millennia, with ancient Egyptians using it in jewelry and funerary objects, and Native Americans incorporating it into their cultural and spiritual practices. The name “turquoise” itself comes from the French word for “Turkish stone,” though the stone actually originated in Persia.
