This Turquoise Gold Bracelet centres natural turquoise stones along a substantial 10.90mm-wide 14kt yellow gold band, with 10.10g of solid gold across a 7.50-inch length. The combination of vibrant blue-green turquoise against warm yellow gold is a classical southwestern-influenced fine-jewelry palette, the substantial 10.90mm bracelet width makes this a clear statement piece on the wrist rather than a layering option. Turquoise is one of the December birthstones (alongside tanzanite and zircon), which makes this piece a natural December-birthday gift.
Turquoise is a natural mined gemstone, a hydrated copper aluminium phosphate that produces the distinctive blue-to-green colour the stone is known for. Turquoise has been used in fine jewelry across multiple cultures for thousands of years (notably in ancient Egyptian, Native American Southwest, and Persian jewelry traditions). Turquoise registers 5 to 6 on the Mohs hardness scale, softer than most gemstones used in fine jewelry, which means it benefits from setting designs that protect the stone edges and from gentle handling during wear. Most commercial turquoise is stabilised (treated with clear resin to harden the stone surface and stabilise colour), this is a standard accepted practice in the trade.
The 14kt yellow gold setting (purity 585) is fabricated at 10.90mm wide and 10.10g total weight, substantial dimensions that place this bracelet firmly in statement-piece territory by metal weight and width. The 7.50-inch length fits standard adult wrist sizes, the wide gold band cradles the turquoise stones securely, particularly important for a softer stone like turquoise that benefits from protective setting design. Yellow gold is the traditional metal for turquoise in fine jewelry, the warm tones complement the cool blue-green of the stone for a classical colour-contrast palette.
Within our turquoise gold bracelet collection, this 10.10g piece is the substantial statement option, the 10.90mm width and substantial gold weight read as a true cross-wrist statement bracelet. Our companion 1.55g Turquoise Gold Bracelet (AJGLDBR-0012) at $425 takes the opposite approach, a delicate 3mm-wide daily-wear turquoise bracelet sized for layering or as an entry-tier turquoise piece. Both bracelets use natural turquoise in 14kt yellow gold, the difference is scale, gold weight, and price tier (a full order of magnitude apart by gold content). Choose based on whether you want a statement piece or a daily-wear option.
Yes. The turquoise is natural mined turquoise. As is standard for commercial turquoise in fine jewelry, the stones are likely stabilised (treated with clear resin to harden the surface and stabilise colour), this is an accepted trade practice and does not make the stones synthetic or simulant.
Both pieces are natural turquoise in 14kt yellow gold. This 10.10g piece is the substantial statement option at $2,325, with a 10.90mm-wide gold band. The smaller AJGLDBR-0012 ($425, 1.55g, 3mm wide) is the delicate daily-wear option at a much more accessible price tier. Choose based on scale and budget.
Yes. The bracelet is real solid 14kt yellow gold (purity 585), not gold-plated, gold-filled, or vermeil. At 10.10g of total weight, this is a substantial 14kt yellow gold piece.
Turquoise registers 5-6 on the Mohs hardness scale, softer than most fine-jewelry gemstones. It is suitable for occasional or careful daily wear but more vulnerable to chipping and scratching than harder stones. Avoid hard impact, ultrasonic cleaners, harsh chemicals, and prolonged exposure to perfumes and lotions (which can affect turquoise colour over time).
7.50 inches is a standard-to-large adult bracelet length, suitable for adult wrists between 6.25 and 7 inches in circumference. For exact sizing, measure your wrist or visit our showroom.
