Tibetan turquoise has been treasured for thousands of years across Tibetan, Persian, and Native American traditions as a stone of protection and good fortune.
Its blue-green color reads as a meeting point of sky and earth, water and stone — an image of standing between the grounded and the expansive.
In Tibetan tradition especially, the stone is set into jewelry meant to accompany the wearer through ordinary days and significant passages of life alike. Natural veining, no two pieces the same, is seen as a mark of individual character rather than flaw.
Set in a teardrop of sterling silver and worn at the throat — the seat of voice and truth — the pendant becomes a small cue to speak honestly before a hard conversation or a meditation sit.
