The Allure of Turquoise

Even insects at the ancient site, ants in particular, have fallen victim to its allure. There is also a captivated audience eager to share in the magnetism of turquoise whose origination isn't geologic in nature, but, surprisingly, plastic. The Allure of Turquoise touches upon many aspects of the much-celebrated crown jewel of New Mexico. Share in the secrets, charms and visual beauty of the stone that has deservedly become synonymous with New Mexico., ISBN13: 9780937206409 ISBN10: 0937206407 Material Type: paperback
