Irani Feroza Stone (Hussaini Feroza)

Buy Irani Feroza stone in Pakistan from GemStore.pk: a natural, untreated 11.30 carat Irani (Hussaini) Feroza, sold at its exact weight for PKR 5,650 with cash on delivery to every city in Pakistan.

Irani Feroza is turquoise from Iran, traditionally from the old mines around Nishapur in Khorasan. In Pakistan most buyers know it as Hussaini Feroza, and it is the feroza people ask for by name when they want the classic clean sky-blue colour rather than a heavy dark matrix.

What makes Irani Feroza different

Feroza is a hydrated copper aluminium phosphate. The copper gives the blue; iron pushes it towards green. Irani Feroza is valued for an even, bright sky-blue with little or no brown or black veining. Stones from other sources, such as Indian Feroza or the veined Shajri Feroza, are usually greener or carry more matrix and are priced differently.

Colour, weight and price

Price depends on colour, evenness, polish and weight. This stone is 11.30 carat, a comfortable size for a gents' ring. If you think in ratti, see our ratti to carat conversion guide. For current prices across all stones, see the gemstone price guide for Pakistan.

Who wears Irani Feroza

In Pakistan feroza is worn for its colour and long tradition, and many wear it in a silver ring. In astrology it is linked with Sagittarius (some traditions also give it to Taurus). See gemstones for Sagittarius or gemstones by zodiac sign.

How to check it is original

Natural feroza is never perfectly uniform under magnification, feels cool and slightly heavy, and does not soften or smell when touched with a warm needle the way plastic imitations do. Dyed howlite or reconstituted powder is the usual fake. Read certified gemstones in Pakistan for how to get any stone tested independently.
