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 ancient Egyptians also often utilized amber in the mummification process. In ancient Greece amber was thought to be drops from the sun. Broken off and fallen in the ocean. In Greek Mythology amber was the tears of the Heliade Sisters, who had been turned in to black poplars by Zeus who was furious over the fact that they were crying over the death of their brother, Phaethon, son of Helios, who was killed by Zeus for driving his sun chariot too close to earth, and setting it ablaze. In Norse Mythology, Amber was sacred to the Goddess Freya, whose magic girdle“Brisingamen” was carved from the stone. It was widely used in rituals to encourage passion or fertility. Celebrating this cultural legacy here are two beautiful.

A particularly noteworthy collection is housed at The Hermitage in St. Petersburg, Russia. Carnelian was probably the favorite gemstone for Roman artisans as they produced the intaglio gemstones so popular in signet rings. Aside from being quite beautiful.

Minoan culture and its jewelry styles spread to the mainland of Greece, then dominated by the city-state of Mycenea, about 1550 B.C. The graves of nobles at the ancient Citadel of Mycenae discovered by Heinrich Schliemann in 1876 likewise yielded a great variety of gold figurines, masks, cups, diadems, and jewelry, plus hundreds of decorated beads and buttons.

Gold was among the first metals to be mined because it commonly occurs in pure form(not combined with other elements) because it is beautiful and imperishable, and because exquisite objects can be made from it.

6 LAPIS LAZULI HEARTS 64.4 GRAMS CABOCHON SET IN FRENCH SILVER BARRETTE
Note: the photos in the red hair. Made the lap us lazuli pick up the orange high ligths. Mixing blue and orange made more of a green look. See other photos for a truer sense of color ABSOLUTELY STUNNING. 100% Genuine Afghan 6 Lapis Lazuli Hearts. Weighing 64.5 grams, set in 4 layers of beveled Antique Afghan Silver. Each heart is One inch tall by 3/4 inch thick. I polished up the first photo, with an oil, just to show you how they will look, if and when you have them lightly polished. I actually like them in both states. But, As I have written, if you look at fine jewelry the lapis lazuli may have a high sheen. These hearts are beautifully crafted and smooth. All 6 are the exact same size. The hearts are exactly the same shape and mounted with the same four layers of silver. They are each complete. They just overlap.The colors differ, some ... morehave more brown, some are bluer. They are all bluer than my photos with the red headed woman. The Barrette is picking up a lighter greener tone from the reflection of the hair and sunlight. The actual stones are more like the other pictures. I love that a French person made this Afghan piece of jewelry into a barrette. And I am selling it in the USA. Each heart could be made into a separate piece of jewelry. If you choose to break it up. Or the whole line could be made into a bracelet or necklace. Or earrings. Rings. Each is large enough to make a cocktail size ring. It is a beautiful hair ornament. The French really know how to make quality hair ornaments. the hearts are lightly soldered to the stainless steel barrette. I mention this. Because, if you are buying the piece to resell, there is a lot more money to be made. I don't have the energy or interest in taking it apart… It is a very well made stunning and functional hair ornament. The amount of Lapis alone and the beautiful heart shapes are priceless. The stainless steel clasp is almost weightless. The weight is in the silver and Lapis Lazuli. I can not tell how deeply the stones are set. Because they are cabochon set
