For those that look for best quality in an ammolite pendant.

The ammolite.

A 14x10mm ammolite gem of the much admired rainbow type which requires three colors and brightness to attain top grade.This beauty has all that plus one more color to make it a four color ammolite and it has fine color shifting properties too.

The setting.

An elegant rabbit eared basket setting of 10k yellow gold elevated by a 3mm diamond cut sapphire at the tip which reprises the blue in the ammolite and brings sparkle too.

A thoughtful jewelry gift for wife?— birthday gift?--anniversary gift?— 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.

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. Banff jewelry is well known for its ammolite where many see it for the first time.

Also seen frequently offered as very expensive cruise liner jewelry.

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.

Ammolite gemstones are made from the fossilized shells of Ammonites that went extinct 80 million years ago in an inland sea that once covered this area in South Alberta Canada..

Ammonites—the fossilized creatures from which Ammolite is made are found the world over—most are a dull brown with a red sheen—no one knows why the ammonites in this small area of Alberta have such amazing bright colours found nowhere else.

Each ammolite 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 it 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.

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