TRANSLATE Arabic Chinese French German Greek Indonesian Italian Hindi Japanese Korean Swedish Portuguese Russian Spanish Antique Genuine Natural Russian ... moreThird Carat Faceted Orange-Yellow Imperial Topaz Oval. ORIGIN: The Ural Mountains. Russia. 19th Century. CLASSIFICATION: Imperial Topaz Faceted Oval. SIZE: Length: 5mm. Width: 3mm. Depth: 3mm. All measurements approximate. WEIGHT: 0.30 carats. NOTES: Upon request we can set your gemstones as a ring. Pendant, or as earrings(click for more information) DETAIL: In Rome and the Early Medieval world. Topaz was associated with Apollo and Jupiter(Zeus to the ancient Greeks) as Topaz was associated with the sun, and both Apollo and Jupiter were solar deities. Both Julius Caesar and his heir Octavian Augustus held Apollo in special reverence. Augustus credited Apollo with his victory of Marc Antony, and erected a magnificent temple to Apollo at Actium overlooking the site of the famous naval battle, as well as an even grander temple on the Palatine in Rome. In the Middle Ages it was believed that a topaz mounted in gold and worn around the neck would dispel enchantments and ward off death. Topaz was also used to treat medical ailments. Topaz powdered and drunk in wine was believed to cure asthma, insomnia, burns and hemorrhages. Celebrating mankind's cultural inheritance here's a gorgeous. Richly colored honey-yellow natural"imperial" topaz from the Ural Mountains of Russia. Gorgeous, vibrant, vivid and richly hued this striking semi-precious gemstone is of exceptionally high quality and possesses breathtaking luster. Certainly flawless to the eye, even at magnification here in the accompanying photo enlargements it is extremely difficult to detect any blemishes. The gemstone was hand crafted into a sparkling faceted oval full of flashes of fiery brilliance by a 19th century Russian artisan. Czarist Russia was of course known throughout the Renaissance and Victorian worlds for its elaborate and costly jewelry. Russian Imperial Topaz, also known as"p

TRANSLATE Arabic Chinese French German Greek Indonesian Italian Hindi Japanese Korean Swedish Portuguese Russian Spanish Antique 19th Century Genuine ... moreNatural One-Half Carat Flawless/Near Flawless Exceptionally Good Quality Faceted Siamese Ruby Oval. CLASSIFICATION: Faceted Ruby Precious Gemstone Oval. ORIGIN: Siam. 19th Century. SIZE: Length: 5mm. Width: 4mm. Depth(Thickness) 3mm. Measurements approximate. WEIGHT: 0.46 carats. NOTES: Upon request we can set your gemstones as a ring. 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. 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. Here's an absolutely exquisite, exceptionally good quality 19th century antique hand faceted ruby from Siam(present day Thailand) 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. Originally used in indigenous jewelry, this is a very pretty precious gemstone, with a highly desirable blood red color and rich texture. This sparkling precious gemstone is absolutely transparent, flawless to the eye and even under high magnification(such as these photo enlargements here) flawless or near flawless. This precious gemstone is of exceptionally high charact
