A top quality ammolite ring with an unusual feature making it a one of a kind.

The Ammolite:

This is a top grade four colour gemstone featuring two blue shades and the rare crimson--orange/red being far more common.Also at some angles you can see a pink comet racing across a blue sky which is how this ring earned its name.A rare beauty for someone who enjoys the unusual.

The setting:

An elegant gallery setting in size 7 made with Argentium* sterling silver.

Argentium* 925 Sterling Silver

 Argentium* Sterling Silver is a new formulation of silver with the same .925 silver content as the original Sterling but with  Germanium replacing some of the .075 Copper in the original Sterling which results in a silver that will not tarnish.Because of its .925 silver content--it is still referred to as Sterling Silver.The qualities of white gold without the hefty price tag.

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!

 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.

 NB

 In this shop you always get the exact item you ordered—no substitutions as done on TV sales shops etc.

 Most silver set Ammolite you see in shops,TV shopping channels and in cruise ships and their Caribbean, Mexican and Alaskan ports of call, where a lot of Ammolite is sold at sky high prices contain lower grade Ammolites which often lacks the rarer blue colour as they reserve their best grades for gold.I strive for the blue in my offerings.

 I prefer to set top grade gems in both silver and gold alike so that my clients are assured that they are getting the very best gems no matter what metal they choose,and offer them at very reasonable prices--often half of bricks and mortar stores, cruise liner retail or TV sellers.

 I find that there is a much greater appreciation for silver now that gold has gone stratospheric however I also stock pieces for those who love gold.

 A note about my listing images.

 All my images are taken under professional OTT daylight corrected bulbs in order to accurately show un retouched colours.Viewing these ammolites under different light sources will result in different colours--all still beautiful--but different.

My beautiful Ammolite

Hi Simon

I just had to thank you again for the quality and price of my earrings and pendant that I bought in July.

I was recently in Banff and Canmore and saw a ton of green ammolite and not much else. It was 3x as expensive and not even close to being in the same realm as what I purchased from you!

I knew I made the right decision when the jewellery arrived but seeing what was out there and for the price they are asking just made me all the more thrilled with my new treasures!

The style of my set is SO much nicer than anything I've seen as well.

Thanks again for the once in a lifetime find!

Best

 “Love it - it's truly one of a kind pendant. It practically glows in the sunlight. Simon was great - answered all my questions promptly. I wanted to give this to my wife for Christmas. Simon expedited shipping and included a chain free of charge. I shopped around for almost a year before choosing this piece. If you're shopping for ammolite and you're reading this, keep your eye on Simon's shop. These are the best stones for the best prices.”—P. Grand.LA California.

 The quality of the items you sell is exceptional. I am enjoying the earrings as well as the pendant. May your site continue to be successful. In time, I look forward to purchasing one larger pendant, with unusual colors. I expect they will continue to be rare but I will start saving. Best wishs.

 GRADING:—Just so you know.

 The ammolite industry has yet to fix on a uniform grading system however the following is accepted until it is.

 Grade AA….Three or more colours.Bright.This is the top grade.

Some sellers advertise grade AAA blissfully unaware that it does not exist but proving they know little about ammolite.Often seen advertised by Asian sellers.

Grade A+….Two colours—Bright.

Grade A …..One colour— Bright.

Grade A- …. Dull.Very dark

The top three grades is all we use… it makes lovely high quality jewelry,the last grade does not.We don’t use it.

HINT:

 Blue is a much rarer colour in ammolite than green or orange.I try and include blue in my pieces.Another sign of quality.

BEWARE:

 A very large amount of ammolite of the low A- grade is being bought up by Asian interests,set in cheap silver plated settings and offered and sold online as fine ammolite jewelry.Much of it appears on sites like *bay and Amaz*n. Caveat Emptor!

 FENG SHUI:

 The popularity of ammolite has grown over the last few years, since renowned Feng Shui master Edward Kui Ming Li began extolling its virtues to his followers.He calls it the “Millennium Stone” and the most important and powerful of stones. Said to promote the flow of “chi” throughout the body, enhance well-being, and reduce toxins in those that own it or wear it.

 Ammolite can exhibit up to seven colours—each bring a certain benefit, such as wealth, wisdom, health, growth, or energy. Feng shui practitioners call it the “seven-colour” prosperity stone.”

 Buy it for its beauty----- but you just may enjoy additional benefits too!
