Sometimes it looks a little green to me. But, for the most part, I say BLUE and that's how I voted.

It actually varies depending on the exact makeup of the stone. Some are more green, others are more blue.

I'd say it's like a greenish blue, or maybe a bluish green.

Are you a politician?

I have heard the colour called a shade of blue but never as a shade of green. I would say it has to be closer to blue, as it is the nearest primary colour.

Actually, it's both. Depends on where it originates from and the chemical make up of the material.

Is Turquoise More of a Green or Blue Colour? May 1st 2007 07:36

Traditionally used to describe an ancient colour gem stone meant to symbolise good fortune. While at the same seals one protection when worn and ensure the well-being of its wearer. Interestingly enough the gem-stone itself is scientifically claimed to be copper aluminium phosphate the colour is a result of a combined blue coming from the copper and green from the iron. However it said that the colour Turquoise is always has combined greenish or blueish tone. This is the very isue being raised whether Turquoise is really more or green or blue shade. Is this why it defined as in-between colour for its greenish quality yet blue trait. As on the colour spetrum scale the blue and green are right next to eachother whereby the Turquoise is located. Maybe the answer lies in the meaning and feeling behind the colour blue and green. Blue with its 'tranquil and peaceful' apeal while green with it similarily 'calming' effect. Now dont these words seem to sound very much the same and mean the same thing including having the same feeling and tone to them.
