Most turquoise in this country comes from the Southwest United States. When the westward expansion began, American settlers encountered Native Americans and recognized the beautiful turquoise jewelry which had been celebrated in their cultures for centuries. Turquoise deposits can be found in several areas of the Southwest including what are now the states of Arizona, Nevada, and California.
The natural beauty of turquoise combined with the accessories and objects which it was fashioned into set the Southwest as the most recognized origin for these precious stones. In modern times there are still several Native American tribes which create jewelry from turquoise harvested on their land. There are also several manufacturers of turquoise jewelry worldwide specializing in accessories like turquoise necklace earrings, pendants, and bracelets.

There is nothing more intriguing than a piece of jewelry made of unique stones. The yellow turquoise bracelet is one of these. This one-of-a-kind bling is made of wavy greenish and yellow turquoise stones that you won’t see just anywhere. It is accented by brass beads to offset the exceptional shades and patterns.
The bracelet is 8″ long and closes with a brass clasp. Wear it in tandem with its matching yellow turquoise necklace. This ensemble is great to wear for both casual and formal occasions. Wear it to the office during the day and continue to wear it to a party when night time comes.
Go to a pool party or a picnic gathering wearing your best casual attire. Match it with eye-catching accessories to get you noticed by more than your friends. A white sundress and a wide-brimmed hat is a great choice. Slip your feet into a pair of comfortable flats and tote a black and white shoulder bag.
Put on a pair of white earrings, a white giraffe bracelet and trendy sunglasses to complete your fresh look. White is a great color to wear especially on sunny days. It will help keep you cool as it will reflect instead of absorb the heat.
