Turquoise has been prized for it's intense color, which varies from sky blue to green, depending on the quantities of iron and copper within this formation. Turquoise is commonly found in a microcrystalline, massive form, often as encrustation in veins or as nodules. Occurs opaque to semi-translucent, light, very fragile, with a conchoidal fracture. Turquoise was often thought throughout history to warn the wearer of illness, danger, and increase the overall mental state by lifting into serenity, creativity, empathy, positive thinking, intuition, happiness, and wisdom.
TANZANITE
Tanzanite is a calcium aluminum silicate, ranging in color from deep ultramarine blue to light violet. In raw form it occurs as blue, purple, brown and yellow.
