Raw Turquoise

Our jewelry is made with only pure silver and natural turquoise. Through thousands of years of inheritance, Tibetans have held a deep affection for turquoise, regarding it as one of the Seven Treasures. It is revered as a soul-protecting stone.

Each piece of turquoise carries its own natural veining, a singularity bestowed by nature. As raw turquoise is worn, it is nurtured by time and contact with the body, deepening its hue into a greener tone, warm and lustrous like jade, becoming a one-of-a-kind protector that belongs only to you.
