Turquoise is a natural opaque stone in shades from sky blue to blue green, and it is one of the December birthstones. It is among the oldest gems worn, found in ancient Egyptian jewellery and across the Americas, and it has long been linked with protection, good fortune and friendship. This collection gathers every piece that features turquoise: raw stone huggies and bracelets, round bezel pendants, Holly birthflower studs, statement rings and necklaces, plus pieces that pair turquoise with opal or ruby, in gold vermeil, gold plated and sterling silver.
Your questions, answered
What is turquoise?
Turquoise is an opaque blue to green stone and one of the December birthstones. It has been worn for thousands of years, from ancient Egypt to the American Southwest.
What does turquoise mean?
Turquoise is traditionally a protective stone, given for luck and friendship.
Are your turquoise pieces real turquoise?
Our opal and turquoise pieces feature natural turquoise and the raw styles have an uncut look. Some studs and huggies use turquoise CZ, so each product page lists the exact stone.
How do I care for turquoise jewellery?
Turquoise is a porous stone, so keep it away from water, perfume and lotions. Store it in a soft pouch or a lined jewellery box and wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.
