We love the properties, myths and legends attached to turquoise:

It is perhaps the oldest stone in man’s history, the talisman of kings, shamans, and warriors. It is a stone of protection, strong and opaque, yet soothing to the touch, healing to the eye, as if carved from an azure heaven and slipped to earth.

The Trade routes that brought Turquoise to Europe went through Turkey, and Venetian merchants often purchased the stone in Turkish bazaars. So the word turquoise is derived from the French, " pierre turquoise", meaning “Turkish stone".

For thousands of years, Turquoise has been prized as a symbol of wisdom, nobility and the power of immortality. Among the Ancient Egyptians, Persians and Chinese, Aztecs and Incas of South America, and Native North Americans, Turquoise was sacred and symbolised power, luck, and protection.

All that for one beautiful opaque turquoise gemstone.

The image of the stud earrings being worn is the garnet variation but they are the same size as the turquoise.

Your earrings will be beautifully gift wrapped in a matt black box, tied with ivory satin ribbon and a gift card enclosed. This standard service is completely free of charge. You can choose to have a December birthstone giftcard or one of our standard gift cards.

We also offer a luxury gift wrap service for a small charge. Either black and gold paper finished with a black satin bow and gift card, or silver paper finished with lilac satin ribbon and silver gift card. So that is one less thing for you to worry about!

We can send the earrings directly to your recipient. Simply add the relevant name and address at the checkout and let us know the message you would like handwritten on the gift card.
