Turquoise (Firoza) Aqua Loose Gemstone

Turquoise (Firoza) sold as a loose gemstone, so you can choose the weight and the setting yourself.

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 aqua; 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. Vedic practice normally starts with a horoscope review by a qualified astrologer before a gemstone is chosen. Its traditional associations are symbolic, not promises of any result.

Photos are a guide: gemstones differ a little in colour, clarity and inclusions from piece to piece. Expect the colour to look slightly different in sunlight and lamplight. This page does not show certificate or treatment details; ask us before ordering if you need a lab report.
