Turquoise, known by Native Americans as the “stone of life” is significant to many tribes, with associations of prosperity, status and good fortune.

To Native Americans, everything on earth is alive, including turquoise because of its color-changing properties. The Navajo goddess Estsanatlehi (Changing Woman), who transformed from a turquoise stone, is honored to this day by young people who wear turquoise and sing her praises at their coming-of-age ceremonies.
