Turquoise Gemstone Beads
Dakota Stones curates one of the widest turquoise bead selections on the market—everything from Arizona’s famed Sleeping Beauty sky-blue rounds to the chocolate-matrix patterns of Kingman, the sea-foam hues of Campitos and Elisa, and the richly veined material from China’s Hubei province. We stock multiple shapes and sizes—heishi, nuggets, rounds and rondelles—so designers can match color and matrix across an entire suite of pieces.
Geologically, turquoise forms when mineral-rich groundwater percolates through aluminous host rock and copper deposits, replacing pockets of material over thousands of years. The result is a hydrated copper-aluminum phosphate revered since the Egyptians and Aztecs for its vivid, naturally waxy luster. Our inventory includes both untreated stones and carefully stabilized strands (clearly labeled) to ensure durability without sacrificing authentic color.
Whether you’re chasing the robin’s-egg tone of classic Southwestern jewelry or the intricate spiderweb matrix prized by collectors, you’ll find a strand here that fits. Mix turquoise with sterling silver for timeless desert style, pair it with coral for striking contrast, or use small heishi as accent spacers—the palette possibilities are as vast as the landscapes where these legendary stones are mined.
