Turquoise (Firoza) Deep-Sky-Blue Loose Gemstone

A loose Turquoise (Firoza) offered by weight for jewellery, collecting and astrological use.

This is a loose turquoise, not a finished piece of jewellery; no metal setting is included. Weight options: 3 Ratti to 18 Ratti (16 options). The listing describes the tone as deep sky blue; gems vary, so ask for a daylight photo if the exact shade matters. Weights step from 3 Ratti to 18 Ratti, and larger weights mean a larger stone.

About turquoise

Turquoise ranges from sky-blue to green, often with a darker web of matrix veining, and in India it is known as Firoza. It has been used as a protective talisman in many cultures, from Persia to the Americas, and is a traditional birthstone for December. Traditionally, a qualified astrologer reviews the chart first, since the right gem varies from person to person. Tradition attaches meaning to the gem, but no result is promised.

FAQs

How do I pick a weight?

The right weight comes down to budget, how large you want the stone to look and, if you follow astrology, your astrologer's guidance. Some astrologers relate the Ratti weight to body weight; others use different rules, so recommendations vary.

Is it advisable to consult before wearing?

Gemstone astrology suggests that suitability depends on your horoscope. Consulting first is common practice, and an astrological report is available on Brahmatells.

Is certification provided?
