Turquoise & Lapis Lazuli
The opaque colors of turquoise vary from sky blue, blue-green to apple green. A pure blue color is rare, but polishing makes the color more intense.

Lapis Lazuli is an opaque blue color with light blue streaks. Lapis lazuli is composed of several minerals in very small quantities. Some gem experts consider lapis lazuli to be a rock, not a mineral. In the highest quality, the color is evenly distributed with spots or stripes.
