WEIGHT: Approximately 0.93 Carats(the pair) NOTES: Upon request we can set your gemstones as a ring. Pendant, or as earrings(click for more information) DETAIL: The name“peridot” is derived from the Arabic"faridat" meaning"gem" Peridot was mined as early as 3000 B.C. on an island in the Red Sea off the coast of Aswan. Egypt known to the Greeks and Persians as“Zebirget” or“Zabargad” later renamed“St. John’s Island by Medieval Crusaders) This barren little mound of land was one of the best-guarded areas of the ancient world. The Egyptians valued peridot so highly that guards stationed on the island were given orders to kill anyone approaching the shore without permission. Many pieces of ancient Egyptian jewelry(some as much as 4,000 years old) featuring peridot have been uncovered by archaeologists. To the ancient Egyptians, the glow of Peridot symbolized"Ra" their sun god. According to some accounts, peridot gemstones were a traditional“gift” given by the Pharaohs of Ancient Egypt to their High Priests, ensuring according to one source, that the priests might"keep their minds free from envious thoughts and jealousies" concerning the pharaoh's powers and wealth. Here are two absolutely gorgeous. Pastel green faceted peridot ovals from Burma.

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. 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. Here’s a gorgeous. Richly colored natural dark navy sapphire precious gemstone from Mogok, Burma. The gemstone was hand crafted and faceted 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: Rubies were amongst the earliest gemstones traded by mankind. Since the 5th millennium B.C. From the most ancient times all the way through the medieval world, ruby was worn by the classical Mediterranean civilizations(Greeks, Romans, Persians, and the Indo-European“Celtic” peoples) as an amulet for protection from lightening, plagues, poison, sorrow, and evil spirits. The ancient populations of the Mediterranean also believed that the color of a ruby would change mirroring changes in the health of its owner, and that the color would drain from a ruby at the moment its owner died. The Bible makes numerous mentions of ruby, first as one of the twelve precious stones created by God when he created mankind. Ruby is then described as“the lord of gems” when one was given to Aaron on the command of God. In the classical world, rubies from Afghanistan, Ceylon, and Burma were traded in the ancient port cities of the Eastern Mediterranean(often by Phoenicians) and from there traveled throughout Europe. Celebrating mankind's cultural and historical legacy here's a remarkable and beautiful antique ruby precious gemstone. The gemstone was hand shaped and polished by an 18th century Russian artisan.

To the Anglo-Saxons, garnet was a cherished treasure. According to historical accounts, the King of Saxony is said to have owned a garnet of over 465 carats. Garnet was also prominently featured in the magnificent cloisonné inlay jewelry found in sixth and seventh century burials in England at the Anglo-Saxon site of Sutto Hoo, and was also popular with the other peoples of ancient Britannia, including the Celts, Franks, and Normans. In preceding centuries in the ancient Roman world, it was not only popular with the Romans themselves(particularly for the carving of intaglios for signet rings) but also with the Germanic(barbarian” tribes in Northern Europe bordering the Roman Empire. Here is a gorgeously colored bright green demantoid garnet semi-precious gemstone. Hand crafted by a 19th century Russian artisan.

However ametrine first became famous in the modern world in the seventeenth century when a Spanish conquistador received it as a dowry when he married a South American Indian princess. Ametrine was subsequently introduced to Europe through the conquistador's gifts to the Spanish queen. This is a very large. Very clean, handcrafted faceted“old fashioned” cut ametrine from the Anahi Mine in Bolivia. The cut is sometimes referred to in the trade as a“cushion” cut.
