TURQUOISE GEMMOLOGY FACTS: 

Turquoise is a Phosphate Mineral that can only be found in limited places across the world. These stunning Gemstones form in dry and infertile regions where acidic, copper-rich water seeps into the ground and reacts with Minerals containing aluminium and phosphorus. This sedimentary process results in porous, semi-translucent to opaque compounds of aluminium phosphate and hydrated cooper. Its bright blue colour comes from copper, whilst the deep green shades come from chrome and iron.

You will often find Turquoise with a spider’s web-like pattern. These usually dark veins are evidence of the matrix known as the host rock.

Turquoise measures 5 – 6 on the Mohs Scale of Hardness.

The Gemstone market is littered with imitation Turquoise, in particular blue-dyed Howlite. So, buying your Gems from an ethical and reputable supplier is crucial.

December’s Birthstone – Turquoise has a range of vivid shades from deep sky blue, blue-green and green.

There are very few Minerals that have a colour as distinctive or well-known.

CRYSTAL HEALING PROPERTIES: WHAT IS TURQUOISE GOOD FOR?

Turquoise is quite possibly the oldest Stone in man’s history, the talisman of kings, shamans and warriors. It has been loved throughout ancient history by indigenous cultures, royalty and more modern free-loving hippies. It’s hard to find a time in history when Turquoise hasn’t been adorned, from Royal Jewels to boho fingers!

Wearing this Stone signifies your commitment to walking gently in this world – which given the current climate and environmental issues, is such a beautiful reason to don this nature-loving Gemstone. To us, this classic adornment represents the Earth Consciousness in Native American beliefs, whereas the blue and green represent the sky and the earth.

Turquoise is an excellent daily companion, especially for those who want to walk through life feeling cleansed and pure, with a free flow of communication. This is a Crystal that sends an ebb and flow of energy to keep you from feeling stagnant.

It gives you strength, vitality, and vibrations that never stop sending good vibes directly to your soul. It focuses our energy on both the spiritual and physical aspects of life. This is the perfect Stone for those seeking wisdom, intuition, joy, serenity, and the freedom to express themselves.

WHAT CHAKRA DOES TURQUOISE OPEN?

This lovely blue Stone absorbs all the hues of the sea, connecting to the Throat Chakra so you can speak your truth and keep your inner critic at bay.

Whilst it is a Gemstone of protection, the colour is femininity, calmness and emotional balance. Often used with the Third Eye Chakra, Turquoise is a Gemstone that can help us go a little deeper, so it is also a beneficial talisman for Meditation. The Third Eye Chakra is located between the brows.

GEMSTONE & CRYSTAL CARE:

One of the most important things to remember if you own Gemstones or Crystals is to care for them properly. Gemstones should be carefully cared for like any other item we love. We recommend using the Chalmers Gems Gemstone Cleaning & Polishing Cloth to keep your Gems clean.
