It was believed that the seven treasures of material wealth were gold, silver, lapis lazuli, seashell, agate, pearl, and carnelian. The source for most carnelian in the early Mediterranean were simply gemstones found on the surface of the Egyptian and Arabian deserts. By 1700 B.C. the Minoans(of ancient Crete) had established trade routes from Knossos to Turkey, Cyprus, Egypt, Afghanistan, and Scandinavia. Carnelian was one of their major trade goods, along with amethyst, lapis lazuli, and gold. Archaeologists have discovered carnelian as far away as Japan, in Iron Age burials. Ultimately by the time another thousand years elapsed most of the carnelian used for the production of jewelry in the ancient world originated in India. The gemstones would reached the Mediterranean either via the Silk Route(if overland) or if by sea, they would have crossed the Arabian and Red Sea by ship, then overland to Alexandria in Egypt, befor

Though the use of shells as“money” originated in Sumeria around 3,000 B.C. it was the cowrie shell that became the world’s longest-lived form of currency. The first use of cowries, the shell of a mollusc that was widely available in the shallow waters of the Pacific and Indian Oceans, was in China around 1,200 B.C. Historically, many societies have used cowries as money, and even as recently as the middle of the last(20th) century, cowrie shells were still used in some parts of Africa. As such the cowrie shell was the most widely and longest used currency in history. So important a role did the cowrie play as money in ancient China that its pictograph was adopted in their written language for'money' During the Zhou Dynasty four different forms of money developed in ancient China. Aside from the traditional cowrie shells. Iron, copper, and wooden forms of money

ORIGIN: Handcrafted in Russia. 18th Century. SIZE: Diameter: 4.5mm. Depth: 2.5mm. Measurements approximate. WEIGHT: 0.61 carats. NOTES: Upon request we can set your gemstones as a ring. Pendant, or as earrings(click for more information) DETAIL: Rubies were amongst the earliest gemstones traded by mankind. Since the 5th millennium B.C. From the most ancient times all the way through the medieval world, ruby was worn by the classical Mediterranean civilizations(Greeks, Romans, Persians, and the Indo-European“Celtic” peoples) as an amulet for protection from lightening, plagues, poison, sorrow, and evil spirits. The ancient populations of the Mediterranean also believed that the color of a ruby would change mirroring changes in the health of its owner, and that the color would drain from a ruby at the moment its owner died. The Bible makes numerous mentions of ruby, first as one of the twelve precious stones created by God when he created mankind. Ruby is then described as“the lord of gems” when one was given to Aaron on the command of God. In the classical world, rubies from Afghanistan, Ceylon, and Burma were traded in the ancient port cities of the Eastern Mediterranean(often by Phoenicians) and from there traveled throughout Europe. Celebrating mankind's cultural and historical legacy here's a remarkable and beautiful antique ruby precious gemstone. The gemstone was hand shaped and polished by an 18th century Russian artisan. Part of an heritage renown for the production of the elaborate gemstones and jewelry of the Czars of Medieval, Renaissance, and Victorian Russia. The ruby gemstone is transparent, but as you can see, not entirely without blemish. In fact them gemstone is quite typical in quality and character of eighteenth century ruby precious gemstones.

Vintage Ethnic Textile Jacket, India
This is a vintage textile jacket from India. I am unsure how old this piece is. I acquired this piece from a friend who was moving and could no longer care for it. Please note there is a piece of fabric missing from the back bottom of the jacket. Ive looked similar jackets like this up on line and they are very expensive. This is a very heavily embroidered piece and would make a beautiful wall hanging. Please message me for any additional questions.
