The name turquoise comes from the same French word, Turquoise, meaning Turkish, since it originally arrived in Europe through Turkey, originating in Iran. Turquoise is a hydrated phosphate of copper and aluminum. The stone has been long prized for its intense color, which varies from sky blue to a paler sky blue, to greenish blue, or pale green, depending on the quantities of iron and copper within it. Like other gems, the richer color types are the most appreciated. The most preferred color is a strong sky blue. Pearls are now preferred to diamonds - for a long time, then, they were thought of as a badge of respectability. Literally hundreds of oysters have to be opened before one is found with a pearl. They improve with wear, picking up faint traces of oil from your skin - so rub them with soft chamois leather rather than washing them.
