Dainty Natural Australian Turquoise Jewellery in 14k Gold Filled or Sterling Silver

Turquoise is December's birthstone and is an ornamental stone known for its unique cyan colour that falls between sky blues to green hues. It's believed to be one of the first gemstones to be mined, and in some cultures considered a protective stone.

It is also associated with various meanings throughout history - wisdom, happiness, hope, and enduring love.

Mined in Central Australia, our Australian Turquoise gemstones are natural, pure untreated stones and display a range of unique colours ranging from robin's egg blue to sky blue. Our Turquoise necklace features natural turquoise with matrix (web like patterns), which are highly valued in Australian Turquoise. Each piece is hand selected from a vintage lot and are individually cut, rounded and polished - being truly one of a kind.

BIRTHSTONE FAQ

Why choose our December Birthstone Necklace?

Our December birthstone necklace features a genuine Australian Turquoise, ethically sourced from the arid regions of outback Australia. Our Turquoise is 100% natural, showcasing a stunning spectrum of robin’s-egg blue with unique, earthy matrix patterns. Choosing Australian Turquoise means owning a piece of the ancient Australian landscape, with every stone telling its own story.

How durable is the Australian Turquoise?

Turquoise has a Mohs hardness of 5 to 6. Because it is a natural, porous gemstone, it can absorb oils, soaps, and chemicals over time, which may alter its colour. To protect your necklace, make it the "last thing you put on and the first thing you take off" - avoiding contact with lotions and perfumes. Clean it gently with a soft, dry cotton cloth to maintain its signature sky-blue finish and prevent the stone from absorbing excess moisture.

What is the meaning behind the Australian Turquoise?

Turquoise is one of the oldest stones in human history, long revered as a symbol of protection, wisdom, and truth. It is believed to act as a bridge between the earth and the sky, providing strength to the wearer and promoting clear communication. Handcrafted in our studio, this vibrant blue-green gem is a meaningful way to celebrate a December birthday and a deep connection to the natural world.
