The Mystique of Turquoise
[ send me this essay ]
An 8 page paper discussing the enduring allure of turquoise. Were
we to have a national stone in the US, certainly turquoise would surely be it. It has been used from
times of prehistory for trading and as talismans for good health and good fortune; it has fueled the
latest craze of all things Southwestern. Stephen Dweck, a modern-day designer, calls turquoise a
modern amulet. The Navajo Indians are most noted for their artistry with turquoise, but many of the
Native American tribes traded with it and held it dear long before the first white man invaded their
lands. Bibliography lists 11 sources.
