Sleeping Beauty turquoise, radiating the steady blue of cloudless skies and still water. Revered since Ancient Egypt as a stone of hope, protection, and courage, carried by travelers and kings as a charm against harm. The stone is held close to the skin, set in a smooth bezel that frames and protects it, and suspended from a fine chain finished with Noa’s signature clasp. The color holds steady from morning to evening, the way the sky over open water does — a constant against everything else that shifts. Hand-fabricated in solid 14k or 18k gold. A necklace meant to ground and elevate in equal measure.
There are two metal choices:
• Solid 14k yellow gold.
• Solid 18k yellow gold.
The chain is adjustable (16" / 18").
Turquoise’s roots stretch back to Ancient Egypt, where it was named Pierre Tourques (or Turkish stone) for the traders who brought it to Europe. It is believed to bestow hope, success, protection, and courage.
Turquoise is one of the birthstones for December and marks the 6th or 11th anniversary.
