Properties of turquoise
Turquoise offers a variety of colors ranging from light blue to dark blue, veined with black. Turquoise deposits are found in many countries: Tibet, China, Iran, Afghanistan, Mexico, United States (Arizona), Chile, Australia, Israel, Tanzania. Very present in Buddhist, Nepalese, or Tibetan, it symbolizes material and spiritual wealth. Turquoise blue in Buddhism represents the life of humans in their life / death duality and earth / sky wisdom.
The etymology of the name "turquoise" comes from Turkish stone, because it is in Turkey that the Europeans found it (and that although the mineral was imported from Iran). She gave her name to the turquoise color.
In lithotherapy, turquoise is an emblem of courage. This semi-precious stone is also considered to be a source of well-being. It is also a symbol of wisdom. It arouses the nobility of feelings, indulgence and generosity.

925 silver, the material of your earrings
The silver used to make jewelry cannot be 100% pure because it would be too soft. In order to be able to work it, we add one or more alloying metals to it, copper most of the time. Silver jewelry, in Europe and in most countries of the world, is 925 silver. It is 1st grade silver, it has a minimum content of 92,5%. This is also called sterling silver, from the English Sterling Silver 925. Sterling silver, for example, is made of 92.5% silver and 7.5% copper. Sterling silver has been a category of silver for jewelry in many countries since the 14th century.
