Featured Turquoise Jewelry

Turquoise is a copper oxide, often occurring in or near copper deposits. The color depends upon the amounts of copper and iron, which will determine whether it is a more blue or green colour. Many of the turquoises in the jewelry listed below come from locations here in the United States, making them rare, as many mines throughout the US have been closed down for quite some time. Please see individual item descriptions for origin and characteristics.  Click here to learn all about turquoise.

Also, don't miss our many varieties of rough turquoise, cabochons ready to set, beads ready to string and rare specimens for your collection! 

We are in the process of restocking and getting up new items after a busy holiday season.  Please stay tuned for more turquoise jewelry soon!
