Story

The artisan story

His grandfather gave him his first turquoise in the Mashhad bazaar; that stone still sits framed in his studio. He travels to Nishapur himself to grade the rough and says good turquoise carries the desert sky's colour — and never lies.

Good quality, slightly delayed shipping

The colours are beautifully natural and eye-catching. It sits perfectly in our living room.

A thoroughly satisfying purchase

Seeing the artisan's share itemised on the invoice meant a lot; it gave me confidence in the purchase.
