Turquoise:

Turquoise is an opaque, blue-to-green mineral that is a hydrous phosphate of copper and aluminium. With the chemical formula CuAl₆(PO₄)₄(OH)₈·4H₂O. People prize it as a gemstone for its hue, and its rarity and value in finer grades have made it highly sought after for millennia.

However, despite these challenges, turquoise remains a highly sought-after gemstone. In fact, its unique color and history continue to make it a popular choice among jewelry enthusiasts. Additionally, the demand for natural, untreated turquoise is steadily increasing, highlighting the enduring appeal of this beautiful gem

The word turquoise dates to the 17th century. Additionally, it derives from the Old French turquois, meaning “Turkish,” because merchants first brought the mineral to Europe through the Ottoman Empire. However, according to Etymonline, the word dates to the 14th century with the form turkeis, meaning “Turkish.”.  In the 1560s, French replaced it with turquoise.  According to the same source, the gemstone was first brought to Europe from Turkestan or another Turkic territory. Pliny the Elder referred to the mineral as callais (from Ancient Greek κάλαϊς) and the Aztecs knew it as chalchihuitl.
