Turquoise is a bright blue to greenish gemstone that plays a central role in Tibetan jewelry. Traditionally, it is often used together with amber, coral and silver. In Tibetan culture, turquoise stands for protection, prosperity and spiritual strength. It is a symbol of the connection between heaven and earth. Believers often wear turquoise as an amulet or in prayer chains to attract good luck and positive energy. The jewelry is usually made by hand, which gives each piece an individual touch and is deeply rooted in Tibetan tradition.
