Persian TurquoiseThis delicate pendant (18 x 16 mm) is a gorgeous oval of Persian turquoise. This particular variety of turquoise has pyrite naturally occurring in it, which provides the metallic glints amongst the blue. This gemstone looks exactly like an aerial view of land in the ocean. The setting is sterling silver. Turquoise is one of the birthstones for December. It is traditionally viewed as a strong protective stone as well.
