Royal and wealthy families have been passing down pearls from generation to generation. With both pearls and turquoise increasing in scarcity and value, why not start a family inheritance of your own?

Historic turquoise deposits have been depleting. Pearls, the only gemstones created through a living creature, have been so highly sought after by the rich and famous that the American pearl oyster populations were nearly depleted by the 17th century. Jacques Cartier, French renowned jewelry designer, bought his landmark New York Fifth Avenue store in 1916 with just two pearl necklaces.

Turquoise is believed to be one of the gemstones from the Priestly Breastplate of Aaron in the Bible. Its vibrant beauty crafted by ancient Egyptians for jewelry, adorning the Taj Mahal, and crowns of Persian kings and queens, Aztec art and wearers of Native American jewelry.
