Turquoise is a valuable mineral and is possibly the most valuable, non-transparent mineral in the jewelry trade. It has been mined since at least 6000 B.C. by early Egyptians. Its history also includes beautiful ornamental creations by Native Americans and Persians. Its popularity is still quite strong today. The finest turquoise comes from Iran but is challenged by some southwestern United States specimens. The name derives from a French word, which means stone of Turkey, from where Persian material passed on its way to Europe.
