Turquoise Earrings (Sleeping Beauty Turquoise)
These rich blue turquoise earrings have a 6 x 12 mm main marquise cut stone that dangles one inch on a 925 Sterling Silver Plated copper hook.
Turquoise is perhaps the oldest stone in man's history. It has been a talisman of kings, shamans and warriors. It has been perceived as a stone of protection, soothing to the touch and healing to the eyes.
Among those attributing healing values in stones, it is said to benefit the whole body with special strengths in healing ailments of the immune, respiratory, waste and skeletal systems.
As turquoise mines, such as the Sleeping Beauty mine in Arizona close down, this gemstone is becoming increasingly scarce and difficult to find. Its value is expected to continue rising as stockpiles dwindle.
