What is a Fetish? A fetish is a rock carving of an animal that captures the spirit and the essence of the animal, not necessarily its exact detailed conformation. Read more about fetishes.
Turquoise comes
in all shades of blue, to blue-green, with a possible shading towards brown-veined
greens. Matrix (veining) may or may not be present in any color(s). It
is the natural variations in turquoise that make it appealing. The color of turquoise
