Turquoise : It’s not just southwestern anymore
  Email This Article To A Friend

If you grew up in the 1970s, you probably have owned turquoise jewelry.  If you’ve bought turquoise jewelry since then, you probably like southwest influenced jewelry.  With the new popularity of the sky blue stone, there’s a turquoise signature piece for everyone even if you don’t normally choose southwestern jewelry.


If you are looking for turquoise jewelry in an updated look, look for pieces set in high polish sterling silver.  We offer several rings and pendants set in high polish settings that range from simple to filigree.  For a unique look, consider turquoise stones set in metals other than silver, like our bronze ring or bronze conch shell pendant.  Choose classic, simple settings.


In the past, you probably thought multi-gem pieces with turquoise only paired it with other cabochon stones. Look for the turquoise of today in pieces paired with gem-cut stones, like our turquoise and amethyst heart pendant or our turquoise, amber, moonstone and amethyst bracelet.  Turquoise can even make a statement when it’s ground up and inlayed in sterling silver beads like the ones on our smoky quartz necklace.


All turquoise jewelry is not sky blue!  Many women are surprised to learn that turquoise ranges from pale blue or to golden olive green, like our bracelet.  Our turquoise jewelry comes in apple green, golden green, pale blue, dark blue and forest green.  You can choose from patterned spider’s webdragon skin or solid colored stones in a variety of cuts.  There is a perfect turquoise for virtually every jewelry lover!


Lastly, consider wearing turquoise beads.  This stone makes a beautiful bead, like the ones in our golden green turquoise and crystal necklace.  We offer several necklaces that contain turquoise beads paired with other stones.


If your style is classic or elegant, don’t miss the new turquoise jewelry trend.  With the variety of colors, metals and settings, there is something to complement any wardrobe.
