turquoise bracelet

Blue-green wrist adornment

A turquoise bracelet is a piece of jewelry worn on the wrist featuring turquoise stones—the blue-green mineral prized since antiquity.

The term most often evokes Native American silverwork from the American Southwest, particularly Navajo and Zuni designs: She bought a turquoise bracelet at a trading post in Santa Fe.
