Turquoise is sacred to Native American tribes in the southwestern US and is a ceremonial gem and a medium of exchange. They also used it in their jewelry. Most Turquoise Jewelry is made in the American Southwest and is popular throughout the world by people who are captivated by that region’s mystery and romance, as well as by the blue of its skies.
