December Birthstone Guide

Known for its vibrant blue green colouring and opaque composition, there really is no stone quite like Turquoise - after all it's the only gemstone to have a colour named after it. Turquoise is said to be the talisman of kings, shamans and warriors. A stone of protection, luck and power, it is believed to bring strength to its bearer. So a good stone to have in a tight spot. Wear this to protect you through your daily battles!

Vibrant Blue Green  

The variations seen in the colour and veins of turquoise gemstones found across the world occur due to the different levels of copper and aluminium present - Tibetan Turquoise is a distinctive greenish colour where as the gemstones that are found in Persian and Egyptian mines are much bluer. Just another reason to love Turquoise. Well, we think so anyway.
