Matte African Turquoise- Ovals

African Turquoise is not actually Turquoise, but rather a speckled teal Jasper found in Africa and often treated to simulate the beautiful blue-green associated with true Turquoise. It contains inclusions such as copper and iron, creating veins and mottling that range in color from rust to black. Considered a stone of transformation and evolution, it is believed to awaken those who carry it to their highest spiritual purpose.

Project Ideas: String on Soft Flex (try in a Soft Flex Float!) or use in an Embellished Wire Necklace...also great in a pair of Simple Wire Earrings!
