We travel across the United States to various Estate Sales acquiring only the finest and most rare antique, vintage, and modern pieces of jewelry. Each piece then undergoes a thorough process of examination, setting, restoration, cleaning, and polishing by a Master GIA Graduate Gemologist. All of our items have been tested and are guaranteed to be authentic Solid Gold—not plated or filled. Item will arrive in a brand new gift box, ready to be gifted or worn today!
A rather rare mineral, lovely blue-green Grandidierite has a hardness of 7.5, which makes it very resistant to scratching and ideal for jewelry use. However, it also has perfect and good cleavage in two directions, which makes it challenging to cut so it is seldom seen in gem or jewelry collections because faceted pieces are very rare. While its scarcity has made the Grandidierite a relatively little-known gemstone, they display three different colors depending on the viewing angle: dark blue-green, colorless (sometimes very light yellow), or dark green, making this a rare gemstone that is sure to captivate and wow.
