One of first stones ever to be considered a "gem", turquoise has been used in everything from protective amulets to stylish jewels. This necklace captures both that magical aura and fashionable feel thanks to the all-natural, semi-precious turquoise and classic sterling silver. Handcrafted in Costa Rica by local artisans, this necklace represents the Pura Vida (pure life) philosophy of enjoying the little things in life and living life to its fullest.
