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 this cultural inheritance here are two nice quality 19th century antique hand faceted square cut ruby precious gemstones. Thes

NOTES: Upon request we can set your gemstones as a ring. Pendant, or as earrings(click for more information) DETAIL: Kunzite was virtually unknown to the American public until the Sotheby's auction of a very special kunzite ring in 1996. Among the jewelry from the Estate of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis was a ring with a 47 carat cushion cut kunzite stone surrounded by 20 round diamonds set in 18k gold. The ring was originally purchased by President John F. Kennedy as a Christmas gift for his wife in 1963. The ring was never“presented” by the President to his wife. As he was assassinated the month prior to Christmas(in November 1963) Kunzite displays two unusual characteristics; phosphorescence” where Kunzite, in this respect similar to diamonds, is observed to glow in a darkened room after it has been exposed to the sun’s ultra-violet rays and“Pleochroism” showing two different colors when viewed from different directions. Well known to Indian and Russian jewelers of the eighteenth and nineteenth century. But“newly discovered” in America in the twentieth century, violet to pink shades of kunzite have become enormously popular in the first decade of the twenty-first century. Originally referred to as“pink amethyst” in Central Asia and Eastern Europe, it is a rare and gorgeous gemstone which typically can shift colors between pink-violet, and(depending on how it is cut) on occasion, green. It is noted for its feminine and alluring hues which range between pastel pinks and violets to intense, almost“neon” hues. Depending on the cut, it can also possess incredible s
