Tonight’s Stone: Turquoise
“The Mystical Blue Cradling the Breath of the Earth”
First, let’s introduce a cocktail that complements turquoise. Tonight, we recommend the ‘Blue Lagoon.’ This visually stunning, translucent blue cocktail is based on vodka and blue curaçao, with added lemonade. The vibrant blue of the Blue Lagoon evokes the color of turquoise, and its tropical flavor enhances its allure. Offering the refreshment of a desert oasis, this cocktail, together with turquoise, provides a moment of exhilarating relaxation.
Turquoise, known for its unique blue hue, is a captivating gemstone. Its color mainly comes from copper content and has mesmerized people for ages. Treasured in ancient Egypt, Persia, and China, turquoise was also sacred to Native Americans, used in decorative and ceremonial items. Its color, bridging the sky and the earth, symbolizes protection and strength in many cultures. The appeal of turquoise lies not just in its color but also in its rich history and cultural background.
For tonight, we have prepared a piece of music that suits turquoise: Maurice Ravel’s ‘Boléro.’ This piece, with its repetitive rhythm and gradually escalating orchestration, musically embodies the natural beauty and mystique of turquoise. ‘Boléro’, progressing on a single theme with subtle variations, captivates listeners, much like the varied expressions of turquoise. The reason for choosing this piece is the synergy between its persistent rhythm and growing passion, resonating with the quiet yet powerful presence of turquoise.（Classical Music Sound Library）
There’s an intriguing tale about turquoise. Native Americans in the American Southwest once believed that turquoise could summon rainstorms. Wearing this stone was thought to bring rain, nourishing the parched earth. Moreover, places where turquoise was found were often considered sacred, giving rise to numerous legends and stories. Thus, tales surrounding turquoise, with its unique color and mystique, have stirred people’s imaginations, spawning rich narratives.
