Turquoise

by Christa Leduc
(Bermuda)

Usually turquoise is set in sterling silver. I wrapped this pendant in 22ga 14K gold-filled wire for the folks who like to wear gold. The stone is 30x22mm and has matching earrings, I make all earwires myself.

At all times in history, Turquoise was worn as protection to ward off the influence of dark and evil powers. In former times thought to protect riders and horses from accidental falls, they are nowadays considered the ideal good-luck stones for aviators, flight staff and other professions which need special assistance to ward off accidents.
