Turquoise has been mined and highly prized for thousands of years by everybody from Persians to the Aztecs and closer to home, native American Indians. It has long been thought of as a holy stone, a good-luck-charm or a talisman, and is believed to promote good fortune, happiness, and long life. We have encased 5 graduated roundels of this precious stone in a generous amount of solid 925 sterling silver interspersed with stations of genuine onyx. Secured with a designer T-bar clasp the bracelet measures 7.5".
