Turquoise is known for its distinctive blue to greenish-blue color, often with veins or matrix patterns of other minerals like black or brown. The color can vary based on the presence of copper and iron.  It has been treasured for centuries by various cultures, including the Native American tribes, Tibetans, Egyptians and Persians.

Turquoise has a moderate hardness ranging from 5 to 6 on the Mohs scale. While it's durable enough for jewelry, it can be susceptible to scratches and damage from chemicals.

Turquoise is associated with protection, communication, and emotional balance. It is believed to have a calming effect and promote spiritual growth.
