The History of Turquoise Stone
Turquoise is a popular stone in jewelry both today and dating back to 6000 BC. Turquoise is not only known for its beauty but also as a powerful amulet. This sky-blue stone, sometimes with a greenish hue, is a symbol of love and a money stone believed to bring wealth and increase the owner's capital. In Europe, turquoise was obtained from Iran through the Silk Road passing through Turkey, leading Europeans to call this stone "turquoise," meaning Turkish stone. In Persia, where turquoise was mined, this stone was called "Firuze," meaning "lucky stone."
