Explore the fascinating history and contemporary influence of
turquoise as a gemstone of choice for collectors, artists, and
jewelry wearers. Immerse yourself in its history from ancient times
to the present, and the influence of Native American artists in
making this gemstone an enduring part of popular culture in
America. Illustrated with over 500 color images, this updated
second edition includes nearly 150 photos never seen before. It
shows turquoise from Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, and Nevada,
plus Australia, China, and Iran, and the major localities in
between. The gems appear in their natural state, cut, polished, and
set into silver and gold jewelry. Extensive text details the gems'
values and the many mines that have relinquished turquoise over
thousands of years.
