Turquoise has been used for thousands of years and continues to be an important symbol across hundreds of cultures. The use of Turquoise was heavily used by Native Americans who believe it is made from their own tears seeping into the earth after they had experienced a long drought. Blue Ridge Turquoise is a highly collectable and valuable turquoise specifically mined from the Blue Ridge mine in Lander County, Nevada. Turquoise from the mine is notable for its unique spiderweb-like designs, light blue and partially translucent hues.
