Free Shipping Location: Lummi Island, United States TRANSLATE Arabic Chinese French German Greek Indonesian Italian Hindi Japanese Korean Swedish Portuguese Russian Spanish Antique 18th Century Genuine ... moreNatural Red Three-Quarter Carat Faceted Ruby Pear. ORIGIN: Handcrafted in Russia. 18th Century. SIZE: Length: 7mm. Width: 5mm. Depth(Thickness) 2mm. Measurements approximate. WEIGHT: 0.76 carats. NOTES: Upon request we can set your gemstones as a ring. Pendant, or as earrings(click for more information) DETAIL: Ruby was greatly valued in the Medieval Arab world. There are many references to ruby(known as“yakut” in ancient Arabic literature of the sixth to eleventh centuries A.D. Including a noteworthy treatise by the 11th century Arab scholar Al-Biruni. Throughout Medieval Central Asia, the Near East, and China ruby was used to ornament armor, scabbards, and harnesses of noblemen. Rubies were laid beneath the foundation of buildings to secure good fortune to the structure. In Elsewhere in Medieval Europe ruby was priced eight times higher than diamond. There ruby was 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. Celebrating our cultural legacy here's a reasonably nice 18th century antique hand faceted red ruby pear. While by 21st century standards it would not be considered a high quality gemstone. It is quite characteristic of an 18th century ruby gemstone. The ruby is somewhere between transparent and translucent, near eye clean, and of higher value character as opposed to lower value opaque“bright” rubies. Of course a hallmark characteristic of most ruby gemstones are light to heavy internal blemishes. Unfortunately most transparent“rubies” sold even by the largest and most reputable retailers in the United States are synthetic(read the fine print; and the same is true of emeralds and sapphires) While

Not cheap silver electroplate! These are two gorgeous. High quality solid sterling silver earrings. These are high-quality earrings made right here in the USA, crafted to last a lifetime. Measurements: Length: 24mm. Weight: 1.49 grams. DETAILS: Silver coinage played a significant role in the ancient world. Macedonia’s coinage during the reign of Philip II(359-336 B.C. circulated widely throughout the Hellenic world. His famous son. Alexander the Great(336-323 B.C. spread the concept of coinage throughout the lands he conquered. For both Philip II and Alexander silver coins became an essential way of paying their armies and meeting other military expenses. They also used coins to make a realistic portrait of the ruler of the country. The Romans also used silver coins to pay their legions. These coins were used for most daily transactions by administrators and traders throughout the empire. Roman silver coins also served as an important means of political propaganda, extolling the virtues of Rome and her emperors, and continued in the Greek tradition of realistic portraiture. In celebration of that heritage here is a pair of gorgeous. Solid sterling silver designer earrings. I picked these up at a trade show recently as samples for a fraction of their retail value, and am passing the savings. These are very stylish, high-quality earrings produced in the USA from solid sterling silver(not cheap electroplated base metal) I’m not permitted to reveal the name of the fashion label these are intended to carry, but they’re exclusive, high-end earrings. I have only a few pair, so if you like the style, don’t procrastinate, they’ll be gone, and I have no ability to restock them! HISTORY OF SILVER: After gold. Silver is the metal most widely used in jewelry and the most malleable. The oldest silver artifacts found by archaeologists
