SUMMER has arrived!!! We look forward to months of endless sunshine and long balmy nights and that means it's about time to start re-thinking our wardrobes! The biggest runway trend for summer 2014 is cool and contemporary TURQUOISE jewelry, to perfectly accentuate your summer brights, prints, whites and neutrals. Reminiscent of the beautiful Mediterranean ocean, the Turquoise opaque mineral ranges dramatically in color from white to summer sky blue to green and grey hues and as a result flatters every spectrum of skin tone.
Turquoise is one of the oldest known gemstones and throughout history has been revered as both a gem and ornamental stone. Reflective of the rich blue of the sky - yet a solid stone of the earth, Turquoise is believed by many cultures for thousands of years to unite the heavens and earth. The balancing effects of this, bringing inner peace and tranquility, encouraging mental clarity and communication.
Native american tribes used 'pieces of sky', as a crystal of protection, in Ancient Egypt (as far back as 3000BCE) powerful rulers were adorned with Turquoise amulets. In Ancient China, Turquoise was believed to be a powerful healing stone, offering protection, good fortune and positivity.
Antalya Designs present for Summer 2014, a fresh new line of luxury handcrafted contemporary Turquoise jewelry, exploring the dimensions, textures and colors of this absolutely fabulous gem.
