💎 ROYSTON TURQUOISE LORE:
The Royston Mining District is located in Nevada, outside of Tonapah.
The Royston District covers several miles of mountain range and is considered to produce some of the highest quality turquoise in the world. Royston is known for its beautiful colours ranging from deep green to rich, light blues set off by a heavy brown matrix or a golden-brown matrix. It is also known for the rare blue to green fade that can be found in one rock or cabochon.
Turquoise is perhaps the oldest stone in man's history, the talisman of kings, shamans, and warriors. Wearing Turquoise is said to bring strength, protection from harm, psychic sensitivity and good fortune. It is a symbol of friendship, aids wearers while traveling and brings peace to the home.
