Turquoise

The colour of turquoise ranges from sky blue to blue-green.

The stone was probably named Turquoise because it came to the West from Persia via Turkey.

Turquoise has always counted as a special amulet for rider and horse. In the East, people often hung cords of this stone on horses to protect rider and horse from accidents on their journey.

The stone is said to ward off the evil gaze and give health and wealth.
It is also said to be the stone of youth, sympathy and soul peace.
