Stone: Stabilized Egyptian Turquoise
Today's Egyptian Turquoise is still mined from the original, ancient mines of the Sinai Peninsula. With bright greenish blues and a webbing of rich red and copper hues, each piece of Egyptian Turquoise is completely unique. The richness of the color of this matrix is prized by collectors and can help to distinguish Turquoise from Egypt. Each stone comes from the same mines that once supplied legendary Pharaohs and Kings.
