Few stones carry a longer devotional resume than turquoise: sacred to peoples from ancient Egypt and Persia to the American Southwest, worn as protection by riders and travelers, and exchanged between friends so long that the tradition made it the friendship stone outright. Cunningham gives it one of his fuller entries, filed under Venus and Neptune for protection, courage, money, love, friendship, and luck, and Judy Hall seats it at the throat, the center of true speaking. The register is guarded warmth: protection that keeps company rather than standing apart. By the pound it becomes shareable, which suits the friendship stone better than any other format could. The stones do not act on their own; the keeping and the giving are yours.

1. Carry one traveling. The oldest turquoise custom there is.
2. Give them away. The friendship stone is made for handing to people you love.
3. Grid and charm-bag. The protection register suits doorway and travel work.
4. Cleanse gently. Smoke or moonlight; skip soaks and solvents for this soft stone.

• Blue Tiger's Eye Tumbled, 1 lb: another cool blue for the same shelf.
• Sodalite Chip Bracelet: the throat-clarity companion, worn.
• Tumbled Hematite Pebbles, 1 lb: grounding weight beside the sky color.

Is this natural turquoise?

It is turquoise, and tumble-grade turquoise is customarily stabilized, hardened with resin so the soft mineral survives tumbling and wear; this is standard across the trade. Contact us if you need specifics on the current lot and we will confirm with the supplier.

What is turquoise worked for?

Cunningham files it under Venus and Neptune for protection, courage, money, love, friendship, and luck; Hall seats it at the throat. It is the tradition's great protective friendship stone.

How should I care for it?
