This prized gemstone, sourced from various mines in present-day Iran, showcases a remarkable spectrum of colors. While concrete records affirm intensive exploitation of Persian turquoise from the Neyshabur mines starting in the tenth century, some evidence suggests its discovery as far back as 2100 B.C.E. With a rich history spanning millennia, Persian turquoise has graced coveted jewelry pieces for generations and is poised to remain a cherished gem for countless years to come.
