This albino turquoise stone is said to purify your energy and is considered a powerful strengthening stone. It was traditionally used as an amulet for protection because this gem absorbs negative energy with its pure properties. Turquoise is a semi-translucent to opaque gem that ranges from blue to green and often has veins of matrix (remnants of the rock in which it formed) running through it. This December birthstone has been cherished for millennia. The pharaohs and other rulers of ancient Egypt adorned themselves with it. Chinese artisans carved it more than 3,000 years ago. This Pear Shaped piece of White Turquoise measures 2cm x 1.3cm approx and is suspended from a 19 Inch 925 Silver chain.
