Turquoise is perhaps the oldest stone in man’s history, the talisman of kings, shamans, and warriors. It is a stone of protection, strong and opaque, yet soothing to the touch, healing to the eye, as if carved from an azure heaven and slipped to earth.

Seen as a veiled spectacle of light or cirrus clouds passing before the moon, Moonstone mesmerizes gem aficionados of different cultures with its otherworldly façade. The pearly iridescence it showcases is such a thing of beauty, it should host a deep meaning.
