Mounted into contemporary high quality Sterling Silver studs. CLASSIFICATION: Cabochon Malachite Ovals. ORIGIN: Southern Urals of Russia. 18th Century. SIZE: Length: 8mm. Width: 6mm. Depth: 3mm.

And not the settings, we can dismount the gemstones and offer you the gemstones without the settings. Just let us know, and yes, we’ll discount the price by the cost of the settings. DETAIL: In the ancient world malachite was a famous and very popular semi-precious stone. The Egyptians seem to have been the first to mine and use malachite as early as 4000 B.C. In addition to use in the manufacture of amulets and jewelry. Malachite was ground for use as eye shadow and as pigment for tomb paintings. The application of eye shadow was believed to provide psychic protection as well. The Egyptian word for eye-palette is derived from their word for"protect. An unadorned and therefore unprotected eye was believed vulnerable to the“Evil Eye” Outlining the eyes thus gained significance beyond beautification. The act itself created a personal protective amulet drawn directly on the skin; an amulet that once applied could not be broken, lost, or stolen. Found in tombs of the pre-dynastic period, eye makeup equipment(palettes, grinders and applicators) seems to have also been essential for the afterlife. Malachite gets its name from the Greek word"Mala'khe" which refers to its green color. Following in the Egyptians' footsteps, Greeks also made jewelry and talismans from malachite to ward off evil spel

CLASSIFICATION: Faceted Green Sapphire Pears. ORIGIN: The Ural Mountains. Russia. 19th Century. SIZE: Length: 5mm. Width: 4mm. Depth: 4mm. All measurements approximate. WEIGHT: Approximately 1.03 carats(the pair) NOTES: Upon request we can set your gemstones as a ring. Pendant, or as earrings(click for more information) DETAIL: Ancient Hebrew legends state that the tablets upon which the Ten Commandments were written. Were actually sapphire, and biblical accounts record that King Solomon wore a sapphire ring. Monarchs of the ancient world oftentimes wore sapphires around their necks as a powerful defense from harm. They preserved the wearer from envy and attracted divine favor. Ancient Hebrew sorcerers and mystics valued the sapphire above all other gemstones, believing that sapphire enabled them to interpret oracles and foretell the future. Many linguists and scholars believe that the name sapphire is derived from its association with the planet Saturn(the name can be roughly translated to mean“dear to the planet Saturn” in many different languages) In ancient Rome Saturn was a major god presiding over agriculture and the harvest time. His reign was depicted as a Golden Age of abundance and peace. Here are two gorgeous. Richly colored natural bright green sapphire precious gemstones from the Ural Mountains of(Siberia) Russia. These gemstones were hand crafted in the 19th century into faceted pears, resulting in exquisite and richly colored precious gemstones with lots of depth, fire and sparkle. They look just like little green diamonds. The gorgeous lime green tones are quite exquisite, a trace of citrus undertones, somehow bringing to mind the green tropical waters of the South Pacific, with lots of tone and body. Good quality green sapphires are in high demand, and can be quite costly. Unfor

DETAIL: Mariners as early as the 11th century knew spinel as“lodestone” Which literally means“way stone” Due to the unique magnetic properties of spinel, it literally“found the way” for ancient mariners as it was used to magnetize the compasses which they used to guide their ship's course at sea. This also saw the beginning of the art of cartography, as seaman began to plot the courses of their voyages and create the earliest maps of the world. Often mistaken for ruby or sapphire in Medieval and Renaissance Europe, many of the so-called"rubies" and“sapphires” in Europe's crown jewels are actually spinel. The most famous is the Black Prince's"Ruby" a magnificent 170-carat red spinel that currently adorns the Imperial State Crown in the British Crown Jewels. Long believed to be a ruby, this gem was once owned by the Arabian Emirs, who were the rulers of Granada(present-day Spain) Celebrating our cultural legacy here's a gorgeous. Sparklin
