Like the stunning celestial masterpiece that is the Grand Central Station ceiling, the particular blue of the stone in this setting against the warmth of the gold is something truly arresting. Rare, extraordinary Sleeping Beauty turquoise comes in a range of blues from sky to robin’s egg but this one feels like my soul-hue. The signature rivets of gold flank her egg-like bubble of a gem and the thick band is hand-carved into sectionals that give the whole thing a bit of a regal, astral vibe. Something cool about turquoise I maybe haven’t mentioned: it can predict danger and protect you from falls. No seriously. Ask an Aztec.
