The Story

Deep Within the Geological Formation

Turquoise is among the oldest gemstones known to civilization — a copper phosphate born where mineral-rich waters slowly seep through ancient rock in arid highlands. For over a thousand years, the finest material has come from the mines of Nishapur, its robin's-egg blue so distinctive that entire colours have been named after it. Whether pure and vein-free or traced with delicate spiderweb matrix, each stone carries the quiet glow of the Persian sky — a gem long associated with protection, prosperity and good fortune.
