This AAAA American Natural Sleeping Beauty Turquoise gemstone is known for its Robin’s egg blue color. This oval-shaped 11.50 ctw gemstone is single mined. This stone gets its name from the mountain Sleeping Beauty, Arizona it was originally mined. ​The mountain, itself, resembles a woman lying on her back—with crossed arms. With mining ceased in 2012, the availability of this gem became scarce and thus it came into the list of rare gems. Set this stone vertically or in an east-west direction, each way the jewelry looks fascinating.  In general, turquoise was also a ceremonial gem for Native American tribes. ​ Excellent for daily wear, turquoise is the birthstone of December and an 11th Anniversary gemstone. Along with the versatility that makes an American Natural Sleeping Beauty Turquoise solitaire ring covetable, it’s the quality and high-shine style that makes it a unique one.
