EVERYDAY TURQUOISE

Turquoise has always been my favorite stone. I grew up in the midwest but traveled to the southwest many summers as my grandmother lived in Arizona.  Throughout those trips, I was very influenced by the Navajo crafts and turquoise jewelry available on the roadside. I remember seeing all of the turquoises spread out on the blankets … it was like magic to me.

As an adult I've lived on the east coast in urban settings, so turquoise is not exactly at the center of people’s wardrobes as it is in the southwest. But turquoise is still my favorite stone! This is what has driven me to design the Everyday Turquoise Collection.
