DETAIL: Medieval Europe was unfamiliar with jade as a gemstone for jewelry use until the Portuguese imported jade from their colony at Canton. China. The Portuguese called jade"piedre de ilharga" or stone of the loins, because they believed it to be strong medicine for kidney ailments. In fact the root of the word“nephrite” as in nephrite jade as“nephros” the Greek word for kidney. Jade objects brought back to Spain from the New World were called by the Spanish version of this phrase, piedra de hijada" This became to the French ejade, and then, finally, jade" In Chinese mythology the Moon Hare made an elixir of immortality from crushed Jade. So of course jade was ground up and drunken as an“elixir of immortality” believed to preserve vitality and youth. The Chinese believe that the secret virtue of jade was absorbed into the body, and would preserve the body after death. Here's a very good quality 19th century antique hand crafted/shaped/polished semi-precious jade gemstone. Hand crafted by a 19th 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.

Pendant, or as earrings(click for more information) DETAIL: Much of the ruby reaching early Medieval Europe came from Badakhshan. On the border between present-day Tajikistan and Afghanistan. Marco Polo described visiting these mines in his accounts of his travels. Later Medieval Europe’s rubies came principally from the border region between Burma and Siam(present-day Myanmar and Thailand) In the medie val world rubies were viewed as a stone of prophecy, used by medieval shamans and sorcerers to divine the future. It was believed that wearing ruby would attract good health, wisdom, fortune, and true love. Ruby was also worn as a talisman, as it was believed that the stone darkened when danger was near and then return to its original color when the danger was past. Ruby was also thought to be an antidote to poisoning as well, and to protect the wearer from lightening, plagues, poison, sorrow, and evil spirits. Consequentially rubies were considered even more valuable than diamonds. In Medieval Europe ruby was priced eight times higher than diamond. Celebrating that historical inheritance here's a very beautiful good quality 19th century antique ruby. Hand crafted by a 19th 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.

Contemporary High Quality Sterling Silver Ring(Size 6– Resizing Available) CLASSIFICATION: Faceted Blue-Violet Iolite Sqaure. Contemporary Sterling Silver Ring. ORIGIN: Siberia. Russia. 19th Century.

And not the setting, we can dismount the gemstone and offer you the gemstone without the setting. Just let us know, and yes, we’ll discount the price by the cost of the setting. DETAIL: The name iolite comes from the Greek ios. Which means violet. In some Medieval cultures Iolite was held sacred to the Mother Goddess, and in other Medieval cultures it was held to be sacred to the Father God or King of Gods(especially the Roman deity Jupiter) There exist accounts that Iolite was used by medieval shamans, mystics, seers, witches and wizards to help achieve a deep trance state, stimulate visions, and stimulate astral travel. Iolite was also used by Norse and Viking explorers as a navigational aid, as a properly oriented stone would change color in relation to the direction of sunlight, allowing for crude navigation in the fog-enshrouded northern Atlantic waters where the direction of the sun was otherwise impossible to discern. Here's an absolutely gorgeous. Richly colored deep blue iolite gemstone from Siberia. High quality, transparent, at a minimum eye clean, this lustrous semi-precious gemstone possesses a rich, velvety violet-blue hue. It is a very attractive gemstone, of very special character and remarkable color and texture. Highly favored by the royal houses of Europe in the 19th century, Iolite has recently become very"hot" Ignored for centuries by Europe and America, it is now suddenly recognized as a truly stunning and bea

DETAIL: In ancient India mystical ceremonies included the use of tourmaline as a tool to bring insight and help in the discovery of that which is good. And to make known whom or what was the cause of troubles or evil deeds. Tourmaline occurred in many of the ancient mines that yielded precious gemstones in the ancient Roman world 2,000 years ago, however it was mistaken for(and thus called) emerald or topaz. However tourmaline was correctly identified and described in the ancient world by Theophrastus of Ancient Greece(student and successor of Plato and Aristotle) in 314 B.C. The name“tourmaline” came from the Celanese word"turmali, which means"mixed" Bright rainbow collections of gemstone varieties were called"turmali" parcels. In ancient mythology, tourmaline was found in all colors because it traveled along a rainbow and gathered all the rainbow's colors. Here are two exquisitely colored antique pink faceted tourmaline princess cut squares from the Southern Urals. These gemstones were hand crafted by a 19th century Russ

SIZE: 6) 2½mm Rounds. 6) 2mm Rounds. All measurements approximate. WEIGHT: 0.73 carats(combined weight) DETAIL: In ancient mythology. Tourmaline was found in all colors because it traveled along a rainbow and gathered all the rainbow's colors. In fact the name tourmaline comes from the Dutch traders who purchased gemstones from the Celanese(i.e. Ceylon or Sri Lanka) The word"turmali, meant"mixed" and the bright rainbow collections of gemstone varieties which the Dutch purchased were called"turmali" parcels. Medieval alchemists believed tourmaline to be related to the philosopher’s stone, and as such could grant enlightenment, give power over spiritual affairs, reconcile opposites and change base metals to gold. Tourmaline was also used by medieval shamans who regarded it a“receptive stone, which means it was thought to promote meditation, spirituality, wisdom and mystical powers. Here are twelve exquisitely colored handcrafted faceted pink tourmaline rounds from the Southern Urals. The gemstones were hand crafted and faceted by a Russian artisan. Part of a centuries-old heritage renown for the production of the elaborate gemstones and jewelry of the Czars of Medieval, Renaissance, and Victorian Russia. Pink tourmalines are rather uncommon, probably the most valuable of the ordinary varieties of tourmaline. There is substantially more demand than supply, so thus oftentimes can be quite costly. The color of these specimens have been alternately described as hot pink, neon pink, bubble gum pink, even screaming pink. Let’s just say the color is very intense, and quite vibrant.

The mold is destroyed every time; every object is a unique piece. The Dogon are an ethnic group living in the central plateau region of Mali. South of the Niger bend near the city of Bandiagara in the Mopti region. Certain researchers investigating the Dogon have reported that they seem to possess advanced astronomical knowledge. From 1931 to 1956 the French anthropologist Marcel Griaule studied the Dogon. In late 1946 Griaule spent a consecutive thirty-three days in conversations with the Dogon wiseman Ogotemmêli, the source of much of Griaule and Dieterlen’s future publications(Dieu d’eau. Entretiens avec Ogotemmêli was published in 1948) They reported that the Dogon believe that the brightest star in the sky, Sirius(sigi tolo or“star of the Sigui” has two companion stars, pō tolo(the Digitaria star) and ęmmę ya tolo, the female Sorghum star) respectively the first and second companions of Sirius A. Sirius, in the Dogon system, formed one of the foci for the orbit of a tiny star, the companionate Digitaria star. When Digitaria is closest to Sirius, that star brightens: when it is farthest from Sirius, it gives off a twinkling effect that suggests to the observer several stars. The orbit cycle takes 50 years. They also claimed that the Dogon appeared to know of the rings of Saturn, and the moons of Jupiter. The Dogon’s system reveals precise knowledge of cosmological facts only known by the development of modern astronomy. The problem of knowing how, with no instruments at their disposal, men could know the movements and certain characteristics of virtually invisible stars has not been settled. In 1976 Robert K. G. Temple wrote a book called“The Sirius Mystery” arguing that the Dogon’s information, if traced back to ancient Egyptian sources and myth, indicated an extraterrestrial transmission of knowledge of the stars. In fact, the Dogon also t
