Dream catchers do not necessarily have turquoise. They can be decorated with any number of stones, shells, feathers or beads. Dream catchers are said to have originated in the traditions of Native Americans and are widely made and sold by Native American crafters. So it is natural that they would be decorated with turquoise which is found and used by the native peoples in the American Southwest.

Turquoise is believed to absorb the "bad" coming to a person.

It is commonly used as a travel talisman as it is said to "break instead of the person wearing it" in an accident.
