Stone Insights:
Old World Tibetan Turquoise Oval Cabochon From Trade Bead:
Tibetan Turquoise is a hydrated copper aluminium phosphate mineral known for blue to green colour, earthy matrix, and natural surface variation. This oval cabochon comes from historic trade bead material, preserving its aged patina, brown matrix, and sky-blue patches.
Spiritually, Turquoise is associated with protection, calm communication, honest expression, spiritual clarity, safe travel, and grounded direction. It is strongly linked with the Throat Chakra, supporting clear speech, emotional steadiness, and a stronger connection between truth and voice. Its zodiac associations include Sagittarius, Pisces, and Taurus, giving the stone a mix of movement, intuition, patience, and grounded strength.
Origin and Authenticity:
Hand selected for colour, matrix pattern, aged surface character, and visual presence. Made with certified 925 sterling silver. The stone is natural and untreated unless otherwise stated, with possible matrix variation, surface markings, age marks, inclusions, or colour shifts that make each piece unique.
Sizing and Fit Notes:
This ring is fixed size US 11. The hammered band gives a steady, sturdy feel and is comfortable for everyday wear.
Care and Maintenance:
Sterling silver naturally develops patina over time when exposed to air, moisture, and skin oils. Wipe gently with a soft dry cloth after wear. Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in an airtight pouch or jewelry box. Avoid water, perfume, lotions, chlorine, household cleaners, pools, bathing, and intense physical activity while wearing the piece.
For oxidized finishes, avoid polishing darker textured areas so the aged detail remains visible. Turquoise is porous compared with many gemstones, so keep it away from oils, cosmetics, harsh chemicals, ultrasonic cleaners, strong heat, prolonged direct sunlight, and rough impact.

Gift-ready packaging is included. Each order is packed securely with care. A small gift may be included with your order.
