A perfect top quality example of the much admired ammolite rainbow.

The ammolite.

This brilliant 15x10 tear drop ammolite sports several colors and a strong color changing ability where the green can move to turquoise in a flash.Gems of this quality are getting hard to find.

The setting.

A simple but elegant rabbit eared basket of 10k yellow gold enriched by a brilliant 3mm diamond cut natural Tanzanite at the top that brings a lot of sparkle to this gorgeous pendant.

A thoughtful jewelry gift for wife?—  wife’s birthday gift?--anniversary gift for wife?— or pamper yourself?

Not likely any one in your circle will have anything like this or even be able to identify the gem--Ammolite is that rare---many have yet to see it! It is often seen as cruise ship jewelry at astonishingly high prices especially on the Caribbean,Mexico and Alaskan runs.

Ammolite in good quality is one of the rarest gems in the world.It has been compared favourably for its brilliant colors with black opal from Australia--and at a far more reasonable price point too.

It is found only in one small area in Alberta Canada and is widely recognized as the most colorful of Canadian gemstones. 

Only a small percentage is top gem quality.No other useful deposits of gem grade ammolite is known to exist—so when supplies are exhausted there will be no more—which is why demand and prices are increasing.

 Each ammolite gemstone is like a finger print. As unique as its owner.They often come with marks of 80 million years underground in the way of stress fissures in the gem material which simply add to their uniqueness.

Practitioners of the ancient practice of Feng Shui  call ammolite the “Seven Color Prosperity Stone” and the most important stone discovered in centuries.They believe that health and prosperity are transferred from ammolite to its owner/wearer. Ammmolite Feng Shui is believed to be especially beneficial.Native peoples have called it “Iniskim” or the “Buffalo Stone” for its believed ability to point the hunter to the buffalo herd.

The best ammolite jewelry contains bright multicolour ammolites one color of which should be the rarer blue.

I have had the good fortune to have lived for years where top grade ammolite is mined and am able to select the very best stones right off the cutters tables before they fill orders to the general public.This is why the quality of gems offered in this shop is consistently among the best available anywhere.

 Our insistence on top quality ammolites is why we have customers worldwide—many of them repeat buyers.

On settings:

We use only 10k or 14k gold or sterling silver in our settings.

We do not offer vermeil or gold plate on settings as these thin coatings wear off quickly and so are not desirable in fine jewelry.Only top quality ammolite and top quality settings available here.

 Canadian ammolite—the very best there is—which is why we are happy to provide a signed warranty with every piece.
