9 Elegant Turquoise Jewellery Pieces to Elevate Your Collection
Before fashion’s collective obsession with Americana and Beyonce’s Cowboy Carter, turquoise has long been a choice stone for various cultures and timelines for many reasons. Its archaeological findings date back to 3000 B.C. — since the age of Ancient Egypt — where it has been used to embellish jewellery, religious artefacts and great seals, while its name shows how the import of the stone from Turkey — turquois is French for ‘Turkish’ — was how it ended up in the European consciousness during the Renaissance.
But of course, the bigger reason why it is still so popular is how well its signature baby blue, opaque appearance is an instant complement to metals of all finishes and warmths. Either bright and pure or speckled with inclusions, the stone is an easy and versatile addition to all jewellery collections, its character and spirit of vivacity particularly vivid when seen on skin.
