D'Anville continued the line of progressive French cartographers which had begun with Nicolas Sanson in the previous century. He is said to have designed his first map at the age of fifteen and in a long and active life he produced a great number of elegantly engraved maps, noted for their scholarship and accuracy. If anything, he was even more critical of the work of his predecessors than Delisle and his exacting standards soon brought him international recognition as the finest cartographer of his time. In fact, during his whole life he never travelled outside Paris but he built up a vast collection of cartographic material which eventually was passed to the Bibliotheque Nationale. He was s

CLASSIFICATION: Faceted Orange Sapphire Briolette. ORIGIN: Ural Mountains. Siberia, Russia. 19th Century. SIZE: Approximate Length: 6mm. Approximate Diameter: 4mm. WEIGHT: Approximately 0.91 carats. NOTES: Upon request we can set your gemstones as a ring. Pendant, or as earrings(click for more information) DETAIL: In the world of the ancient Mediterranean(including the Greeks. Romans, Persians, Hebrews, and the various Indo-European Celtic tribes) priests and sorcerers honored the sapphire above all other gems, believing that sapphire enabled them to interpret oracles and foretell the future. Medieval sorcerers believed that sapphire enabled them to hear and understand the most obscure oracles. Not only did sapphire help to get in touch with astral and psychic realms, but the stone also provided protection for those who took those journeys. On the flip side, Medieval populations believed that wearing a sapphire as a talisman was an antidote to black magic and effects of evil spirits, and provided protection against sorcery. It was believed to banish evil spirits and send negative spells back to the sender. Sapphires have been since ancient times one of the most highly valued of all gemstones, and references to the gemstone date back to about 800 B.C. Here's a gorgeous. Sparkling, delicately hued pastel pumpkin-amber orange sapphire from the fabulous Ural Mountains of Russia. This particular gemstone was hand cut and faceted into a briolette teardrop, an old fashioned cut reflecting its heritage. 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.

Publisher: Cambridge University Press; 2005) When Pope Urban II rose to his feet to address the multitudes gathered before him at the Council of Clermont in 1095 A.D. His appeal was simple: let Western Christendom march to the aid of their brethren in the East. Whether the Crusades are regarded as the most tremendous and romantic of Christian expeditions or the last of the barbarian invasions, they remain one of the most exciting and colorful adventure stories in history. The reasons for joining the Crusade varied widely; remittance from penance, a desire to see the Holy Places, or greed for the power and booty to be captured in the East. But the prize at the end of it all, be it spiritual or temporal, of the Holy City of Jerusalem. An army of mounted warriors. Traveling with peasants, merchants and artisans, faced a journey over hostile terrain, meeting with unforeseen antagonism, desert heat, and the constant struggle to feed and water their troops and horses. Their journey's spectacular culmination was the long siege of Jerusalem, at the end of which the Crusaders, by a brilliant tactical maneuver, broke down its defenses and poured into the city which erupted in a bloody massacre. Steven Runciman's"History of the Crusades" is justly acclaimed as the most complete and fascinating account of the historic journey to save the Holy Lands from the Infidel. This abridgement makes accessible to a wider readership one of the most compelling historical narratives. CONDITION: New oversized softcover.

CLASSIFICATION: Hand Cut and Faceted Colombian Emerald. ORIGIN: Produced in Colombia. Cut and Finished in Russia, late 19th Century. SIZE: Length: 5mm. Width: 4mm. Depth: 2mm. All measurements approximate. WEIGHT: 0.31 carats. NOTES: Upon request we can set your gemstones as a ring. Pendant, or as earrings(click for more information) DETAIL: Emeralds were quite favored in the Roman Empire. Especially by Roman Emperors, emeralds oftentimes used as Roman crown jewels. During the Roman era emerald was discovered in Germany near present-day Salzburg, and production continued through the Middle Ages before the deposit played out. Prior to the discoveries in Roman Germania, the ancient Mediterranean’s source for these precious gemstones was Egyptian emerald mines near the Red Sea. These were the recently rediscovered“Cleopatra’s Mines” near the Red Sea, described in ancient Egyptian written texts dated to the life of Pharaoh Sesostris III in the 19th century B.C. The Greeks worked these mines in the time of Alexander the Great and throughout the Ptolemaic(Hellenic/Macedonian) Dynasty. The last ruler of the Greek Ptolemaic Dynasty in Egypt, Cleopatra VII, Queen of Egypt, was often depicted and described wearing fabulous emeralds mined from those same famous ancient mines. Here’s a beautiful. Very nice quality, richly colored Colombian green emerald of intense, bright hue. Emeralds are nearly 100 times rarer than diamonds, and there are few opportunities to acquire such good quality natural emeralds at reasonable prices. The best specimens can bring over $40,000 a carat. Though the gemstone originated in Colombia, it was hand crafted and faceted by a 19th century Russian artisan, part of an heritage renown for the production of the elaborate gemstones and jewe

DETAIL: Tanzanite is a rather rare precious gemstone. Found in commercial qualities and quantities only at a single mine in the Merelani Hills in the shadow of Tanzania's Mount Kilamanjaro. Geologists say that the best estimate is that the mine will be exhausted within the next 15-20 years, and it is believed extremely unlikely that significant deposits exist elsewhere on earth. Since its introduction in 1969, tanzanite has become the most popular gemstone in the world after diamond, ruby, sapphire, and emerald. Here are two very pretty purple-blue tanzanites from Tanzania faceted into these beautiful oval cut gemstones.

Includes 24 inch gold electroplated chain(or silverplated- your choice) Vital Statistics: Weight: 25 1/2 carats. Length: 21mm. Height: 17mm. Thickness: 15mm. DETAILS: Throughout the Orient jade was known as the"dream stone" Ancient populations believed jade would enable the wearer to access the spiritual world. And was perceived as a sacred substance. Jade was also regarded as a sacred substance. It was believed to afford the wearer against lightening strikes, would drive off beasts, and helped warriors in battle. It was also believed to be an effective fertility aid, and to provide the wearer with self-confidence. 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 darling little green jade statuette hand-carved into an exceptionally well-detailed little elephant. We picked these up in Bombay in the 1990’s from a wholesaler who had kept them in a warehouse for decades. The carving is difficult to date. As artisans have been producing little hand-carved jade statuettes for centuries, however reliable indications suggest that this was produced in the 1950’s or 1960’s. However the art form is dying out, and this is a beautiful piece of art possessing a very rich and handsome appearance. Identified as being carved from some of the world's finest jade deposits, this particular shade of jade is highly sought after, and can be quite costly. No two pieces of jade are identical, so you can be sure that this statuette is unique. The pendant comes mounted onto a very nice 24 inch, 14kt gold electroplated chain. If you prefer, we also

DETAIL: In the medieval world sapphire was also held to be a symbol of truth and constancy. And in the 12th century, the Bishop of Rennes praised the blue of the sapphire as representing heaven, and initiated its use in ecclesiastical rings and other ecclesiastical jewelry. Medieval European populations believed wearing a sapphire suppressed negative thoughts, and possessed curative powers over natural ailments. Sapphires were also used as medicine for treatment of eye diseases and as an antidote for poison. As a talisman, medieval wearers of sapphire regarded the stone as an antidote to black magic and effects of evil spirits, and providing protection against sorcery. It was believed to banish evil spirits and send negative spells back to the sender. Medieval sorcerers believed that sapphire enabled them to hear and understand the most obscure oracles. Here’s a gorgeous. Vibrantly colored natural bright blue sapphire precious gemstone from the Ural Mountains of Russia.
