Genuine Turquoise Jewellery

When buying Turquoise jewellery online you should first consider whether the jewellery is handmade using genuine Turquoise. Turquoise is a natural gemstone which is often imitated with both synthetic and enhanced imitations commonly sold as genuine Turquoise. The most common imitation is a semi precious gemstone named Howlite which is colour enhanced to give the appearance of Turquoise and although the resulting stone is often very visually attractive it is not genuine Turquoise.

To guarantee that you are purchasing genuine Turquoise you should only buy from a trusted jeweller and should always look for information about the source of the Turquoise used to create the jewellery.

The best way to tell if a piece of Turquoise is genuine is to take a hammer to it and crack it in two. As part of our quality control procedures we perform this test on a random sample of every piece of Turquoise to be used in our jewellery (even the most expensive ones) to confirm the authenticity. You can be assured of only quality materials when purchasing designer Turquoise jewellery from our collection.
