Turquoise is a light blue to green-gemstone. It is often fracture-sealed, which means it is sealed with acrylic resin to enhance its color, texture, and hardness.

Under heat, blue turquoise will form a greenish hue. Turquoise is porous and will absorb skin oils over time, gradually changing it to a yellowish color.

Turquoise is soft, so avoid scratches and sharp blows. Also avoid hot water and household chemicals.

Turquoise rings, beads and other jewelry make a great birthday or holiday gift for your loved one. Check out some of the links below if you may be interested in buying turquoise jewelry
