Turquoise Inlaying

Iranian turquoise inlaying (Firoozeh) is one of the most beautiful Iranian artworks with a history of at least 2,000 years. In Iranian architecture, the blue turquoise was used to cover the domes of the Iranian palaces because its intense blue colour was a symbol of heaven on earth. Iranian artists use this gemstone in various forms of handicrafts. Inlaid turquoise consists of jewelries and containers made of metals such as copper, brass, silver, or bronze on which small pieces of turquoise stones are placed side by side with special glue. An absolute beauty of the objects will be created after final polishing of turquoise stones.

Healing Properties

In many cultures of the old and new worlds, the turquoise gemstone (Firoozeh stone) has been esteemed for thousands of years as a holy stone, a bringer of good fortune or a talisman. The oldest evidence for this claim was found in Ancient Egypt, where grave furnishings with turquoise inlay were discovered, dating from approximately 3000 BCE. In the ancient Iranian Empire, the blue gemstones were earlier worn round the neck or wrist as protection against unnatural death. It was known that turquoise crystals have healing properties. It is claimed that turquoise stone has the power to prevent panic attacks.

Qualified Turquoise

High quality turquoise is characterized by dark blue colour and fewer impurity streaks that are known as turquoise Ajami. Various types of turquoise are available in different streaks that vary in colour from green to dark blue. The blue color is enhanced when it has been formed in an area that contains more copper. More aluminum, more greenish and in the presence of zinc, the deposits display a yellow-green combination. The turquoise of Neyshabur, near Mashhad (global city for Gemstone), with dark blue color is a criterion for valuation of turquoise all over the world. The Neyshabur turquise mine is the biggest turquoise mine in the world.
