Turquoise

Turquoise is a blue-to-green mineral that has been prized as a gemstone for thousands of years. Its unique blue-green colour is so distinctive that it has given rise to its own name, ”turquoise.” Turquoise is found in many countries, including Iran (Persia), Egypt, Mexico, and the United States.
