Turquoise is mined across the globe, and each location yields specific stone colors and characteristics ranging from the bright sky blue-matrix free Sleeping Beauty turquoise and Kingman turquoise from Arizona to the rough, organic yellow colors and heavy matrix mined from Africa.
Mother-of-pearl refer to the nacre that coats the inside layer of the mollusk shell which is used to form pearls--hence, it's the mother of the pearl.
