Turquoise Jewelry: The Sky Stone

There are many words that are particularly descriptive in the Native American Language. Among these words is Turquoise. The word Turquoise literally translated means "sky stone". It can also mean "stone that is made from the sky", and among all of the ethnic groups in the world today, none know more about making Turquoise jewelry than the Native Americans.

The Native Americans believed that wearing jewelry with the turquoise stone embedded into its design would bring luck and prosperity to the wearer. Turquoise jewelry delivers elements such as warmth and elegance that is very seldom matched by jewelry with other types of stones.

Though we may think that the Native Americans were the only ones to use this beautiful sky stone, it has been found in jewelry designs from all over the world including, Africa, Russia and Europe. In the Mayan and Incan societies, the Jade and Turquoise stones were considered to be very sacred stones. In the Greek civilization, it was believed that wisdom, sexual attraction and vision could be increased by the magical properties that were believed to be trapped in side the turquoise stones.

Even in today's world, the love for this beautiful blue stone is in many of the top fashions. You can find designs of Turquoise jewelry in collections of the wealthy, actresses and monarchs. You can even find it in high quality children's jewelry as well as in the jewelry of the typical working woman.

Turquoise has found its way onto birthstone charts for the December or October months. No matter what month it is, Turquoise is still one of the best choices for women on any occasion such as birthdays or just the average gift. With the beliefs by the ancient Greeks of turquoise being an aphrodisiac, Turquoise makes a great wedding or anniversary gift that will bring a smile to any woman.
