Green Tree RoughThe Green Tree Mine:
Located not far from the Fox, this mine creates stunning leafy shades of greens and browns and rarely an intriguing sky blue turquoise. This turquoise is prized by collectors and artisans for it’s unique textures and splendid color variations.


Pixie Stabilized TurquoiseThe Pixie Mine:
This mine offers very hard turquoise that ranges in color from the softest, subtlest green to the most intense emerald green you will ever encounter in turquoise. The higher grades polish to a glass sparkle, and even the lower grades offer splendid glossiness. This turquoise has black matrix that offers a stunning contrast in color.


New Lander RoughNew Lander:
Is known for it’s wild patterns and color characteristics. This turquoise is so very unique that it is hard to find the same type twice. It consists of turquoise mixed with calcasiderite, varasite, and faustite. All of these combine to form one very fun and unique stone.


Mexican Turquoise:
We currently offer stabilized Mexican turquoise beads from the Nakasari mine. This turquoise is a stunning blue leading some to believe that it is dyed, this is not a fact at all. This true blue turquoise is naturally this blue offering a great addition to your beading collections and creations.


Chinese Turquoise:
This turquoise is from China and currently we are offering natural Chinese beads. This lovely turquoise features a great shade of green that mixes well with the warmth of amber and other honey colored and brown stones.


Emerald Mountain TurquoiseEmerald Mountain:
This varascite features soft to bold shades of green that mix with brown or white matrix for warm tones and in some cases a very earthy feel. It has a soft gleaming polish for a subtler effect and looks really nice with warmer hued companion stones.


Chrysophrase Green and CitronChrysophrase:
We offer both yellow and green chrysophrase. The yellow is a bright lemon color with golden brown threads of matrix that occasionally drift through the stone. This is softer than the green version of this stone, making it easily shaped and drilled for interesting accent or focal beads.

The green chrysophrase is very hard and takes a great polish. It is slightly translucent making this piece ideal for visual texture and as a design focus.

Both of these types of chrysophrase are from Australia.
