About Turquoise Jewelry
History
The word "turquoise" was derived from the French term "pierre turquoise," meaning "stone of Turkey." This was after a 16th century European misconception that the stones originated in Turkey, when in fact they were first discovered in Persia. Turquoise is formed over millions of years with a chemical reaction when water leaks into rocks containing copper and aluminum minerals. Experts believe Turquoise was first mined in 6000 B.C. by ancient Egyptians and today it is mined in countries all around the world, including, China, Iran, the United States and Tibet.
Turquoise jewelry is a timeless accessory that has remained popular for centuries. Discovered in ancient Egyptian tombs that date back to 3500 B.C., for years, cultures around the world have worn turquoise as jewelry in the belief that it possesses healing and protective powers. While turquoise jewelry continues to be worn by many who believe it will attract money, luck and love, today, it is also a prevalent fashion accessory and serves as a December birthstone, as well as the stone for the fifth and eleventh wedding anniversaries.
Types of Turquoise
Turquoise may range in color from light blue to green. It may contain a variety of natural definitions, from white to black, which add a one-of-a-kind look to each stone. While the variances in color and matrix do not affect the value of the stone, there are properties that make some turquoise more expensive than others, most likely color uniformity and vividness. Turquoise jewelry is often treated in order to bring out the vibrant color and radiance of each stone.
Caring For Your Turquoise Jewelry
Like all natural gemstones, turquoise can be damaged if not cared for properly. Clean with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth, drying after washing. Avoid scratches by storing separate from other jewelry. Avoid exposure to oils, perfumes, and chemicals that may affect the stone’s vivid color.

5.0 out of 5 stars
perfect for slender wrists,

This review is from: Sterling Silver Turquoise Double Strand Bracelet with Toggle Closure (Jewelry)
I have slender wrists and have a difficult time finding bracelets that don't literally fall off my hand. The very reason that other people cited for giving lower ratings is the chief reason I took a chance and purchased this item. At 7.5 inches, this bracelet fits my wrist perfectly. I was fortunate and the veining in the bracelet I received is beautiful. I saw another reviewer say it was almost non-existent in theirs so I guess that part of it is really luck of the draw. Each stone is around 5/8 of an inch long so there is definitely some substance to it. It's nice for me to be able to wear something with chunky stones that does not involve any sort of elastic or adjustment by a jeweler. It was well worth the price to me.

Lovely, chunky bracelet of great quality. I just wish I had looked at the length (7.5") before buying it. It's definitely a tight fit for me (and my mother, who I bought it for). All's well, though because I gave it to a (tiny) friend for Christmas.

I think it's a really pretty piece of jewelry. I really do like it. One thing I would change is the size. It's kind of small. You need very petite wrists to wear this item. I prefer bracelettes to be loose, this one is fitted. Still pretty though!
