Single Pieces

Turquoise pendants and necklaces are a bold piece of jewelry

Turquoise is a blue green mineral that is often opaque and comes in many different shades - naturally. Turquoise is a highly treasured mineral and is considered rare and prized. Native Americans treasure turquoise and 2010 is said to be the year of turquoise to come back in popularity. The trend of wearing this lovely color and stone has dated back to centuries ago. In modern times there are many new "twists" on how to wear this type of jewelry.

While turquoise has been used in a number of forms ranging from hair pieces to bracelets, rings, and earrings, it is most commonly found in the form of a pendant. Turquoise pendants and necklaces are a bold piece of jewelry that stands out from the crowd and demands to be noticed. Women and men who wear this type of jewelry are outgoing and fun, and wish to be noticed.

If you want to wear a pendant with turquoise, then 2010 is the year to do so. It will always be popular but vintage and modern pieces are making a big comeback in the fashion world. Turquoise jewelry is best paired with gold and white colors. Summery outfits are excellent for matching with this jewelry, and can make the outfit feel very "tropical" and "beachy." The jewelry will look excellent with dresses and pant suits, casual or business, and even something more elegant like a ball gown. This lovely stone matches a number of different outfits and is quite the versatile piece of jewelry.

Turquoise pendants can either be understated or make a big statement. Small circular or shaped stones attached to a simple chain are clean and nice looking. Large stones with intricate carvings make a much bigger and bolder statement to the world.

The price of high quality turquoise pendants can very dramatically. Most retail stores sell synthetic types for less than $10, but they still look decent. If you want something elegant and sophisticated, then you can expect to pay between $50 and $1,000 or more. The value of the stone will vary based on the coloring, shape, weight. If it is paired with gold or platinum and diamonds, then the price can be significantly higher for a single piece. If you love turquoise pendants then investing in a more expensive necklace can be a great fashion investment for yourself.
