Turquoise is a gemstone with a characteristic blue hue and often with matrix (black veins). Turquoise was brought from Persia by the Turks who sold them to Europeans. Westerners loved these gems of a unique and pure blue, and mistakenly called it "turquoise", meaning "stone of Turkey". Persia (now Iran) still produces the most beautiful turquoise, thanks to its deposits in the Nishapur region. Iranian turquoise is absolutely immaculate, without any matrix. This is why many imitations have been developed to resemble these beautiful turquoises. Matrix Turquoise comes mostly from the United States, but is also found in Afghanistan, Nepal (green), and Latin America.
