Find out more about turquoise stone
Turquoise is a semi-precious stone often used to adorn knife handles or as a decorative element in cutlery. It is prized for its vibrant blue-green colour and unique shades, ranging from light blue to more intense blue, sometimes with brown or black veins that add character to each piece.
When used for a knife, turquoise can be incorporated into the handle, often in combination with other materials such as wood, bone or steel, creating an interesting visual contrast and a refined aesthetic. In addition to its aesthetic appeal, turquoise is sometimes considered a stone of protection and healing in certain cultures, adding a symbolic touch to the object.
