Pictures of Aqua / Turquoise Color Gemstones

Stones in a Variety of Aqua Shades

As with all gem stones, there is a great range of color in turquoise or aqua colored stones. Precious stones range from almost green and teal, to a very pale aqua color, as in light aquamarines. In the range is even more noticeable as in turquoise, chrysocolla and variscite which range between a very green hue to a darker blue hue.

The color turquoise is soothing, purifying, and calming and is used to buildup the immune system and fight off inflammatory diseases.

Shown below are pictures of some common and uncommon aqua colored stones. The links below provide more information about a specific gemstone, its corresponding birthstone facts, or pictures of jewelry made with the stone. See this link for pictures of all the aqua/turquoise birthstones.

It has been suggested that wearing jewelry with aqua or turquoise colored stones combines the cleansing action of green and the soothing action of blue. It is soothing, purifying, and calming and will enhance your creativity and help to connect with your own spirituality.

The color turquoise, aqua or teal is a combination of blue and green and offers the favorable effects of both blue and green.

Native Americans use turquoise as a healing aid for allergies.
