These Turquoise beads have so much personality! The discs have greens, blues, greys and even some brown hues and the center oval bead is a lovely teal color! I think this will look great on any skin tone. I used Delica Glass spacer beads and a rope style Sterling Silver toggle clasp to finish this 7 inch long bracelet.

Turquoise is December's birthstone, but we can all enjoy wearing this amazing gemstone. It's said that the Wisdom of the Ancient Ones comes to those who wear Turquoise!

According to firemountaingems.com, "Turquoise, a stone ranging in color from blue to green to yellow, is filled with wonderful patterns of brown and black matrix that are composed mainly of copper deposits. Although turquoise has captivated man's imagination for centuries, no one is sure exactly when it was discovered. It is believed that prehistoric people used and prized it for its blue-green colors because carved pieces have been found in burial and archeological sites spanning the globe.

Turquoise is one of the official birthstones for the month of December, and is heralded as the stone of communication. It encourages enthusiasm, thus inspiring new projects and bringing to light undiscovered artistic abilities. Turquoise also provides understanding and encourages attention to detail while attracting prosperity and success.

The sprawling lines of coppery matrix provide a large amount of energy to its wearer. This may be one reason why the stone has long been prized as a powerful talisman with healing properties. It is believed that turquoise can help balance the blue throat chakra, enhancing the ability to communicate while increasing resistance to viruses, helping to relieve sore throats and allergies."
