Nevada Turquoise: Desert Sky Stone
Nevada produces some of the world's finest turquoise, prized for its intense blue color and minimal matrix. The state's arid climate and unique geology create turquoise with exceptional hardness and color saturation. Historic mines like Royston, Blue Gem, and Pilot Mountain have yielded stones treasured by collectors for generations.
Turquoise has been revered for over 7,000 years—ancient Egyptians adorned Tutankhamun's burial mask with it, while Native American cultures considered it a bridge between earth and sky. Known as the stone of protection and wisdom, turquoise was believed to change color to warn its wearer of danger.
