Some buy this kind of jewels simply because they are beautiful. Just take a look at some of the reasons why it is very important to wear a Genuine Turquoise necklace.

Turquoise is mined all over the world with each mining being different from each other in terms of color. This enables the jewelers to provide different tastes for their clients. However, the stone is very soft for it to be worn as a necklace and due to this fact it is heated under pressure to make it strong enough. The vivid blue color on the stone jewels is due to the copper while the soft green tone color is from iron.

Another very important issue is the weight of the necklace. Usually colored gemstones are sold using weight which is calculated in carats but not its size. Due to this fact, some jewels may cost higher than others because they weigh differently. This is usually dictated by the type of stone used to make the jewel. Also the scarcity of some of these gemstones may contribute much to the pricing of these products. A genuine necklace will always cost higher compared to the dyed ones.

When one is depressed wearing this type of necklace will help boosts their mood. The stone achieves this by inducing a sense of serenity and peace by restoring depleted vitality and lifting sagging spirits. It brings focus back to the center of the heart and relieves stress at the same time.
