And The Ring Design Was Chosen! 💍

My 3rd jewelry project for 2017! 

The design had been chosen and the stones selected  all in an impromptu just early morning today! Now the my avant-garde pinky ring design is ready to be made! It took me only a few minutes to finalized & sketched what I had in mind. Days before, selecting which precious stones to be used for the ring is a daunting task coz I had a few options & I couldn't decide until the last minute. It's like judging beauty contestants and choosing which is the most beautiful of them all...
And the focal point of the design is probably my favorite colored gemstone in my collection at the moment which is this exceptionally rare & attractive 11.45 carats internally flawless 100% color-change Alexandrite! The side stones are two natural star rubies that I had since 2013 & I'm finally glad to have them mounted in jewelry & there's a special meaning about those two rubies & they remind me of my rescued cats named Rubi & Ruby. The first one is a female kitten who died over 2 years ago while Ruby is just over 2 years old when he went missing last August & never came back though I had HIGH hopes he will come back! The design where the star rubies are set is two 'Rising Phoenix'🔥with wings spread upwards as if my cats rose from the ashes and be reborn again! 
At least I have a beautiful precious item to remember my beloved pets and like 'The Phoenix' cats does seems to come back over & over again resembling the former felines that I had loved before...🐱😻

I am so excited to see the final result and what metal will the gorgeous stones will be set is a mystery for now coz I love making everyone feel the excitement and some mystery! 

To be continued...

And I Have A Perfect Song For This!

November Traditional Birthstone: Imperial Topaz

Image
T opaz is the traditional birthstone for November & it is one of the most popular gem varieties. Although topaz comes in all the colors of the rainbow from one of my personal favorite the very affordable blue topaz which is considered a semi-precious stone  to the very rare imperial topaz varieties considered as precious stones that comes in many different shades of colors except blue & topaz are durable enough to be worn on rings with a hardness of 8 on the Mohs Scale of Hardness. However only a yellow to golden yellow to orange varieties are known as the true birthstone for November. The jewelty industry recently added semi-precious stone Citrine as part of the November birthstone but it has no magical powers to November babies. Topaz comes in many different parts of the world but the finest imperial topaz tends to be exclusively found in fewer places like Russia & Brazil. Alot people confused topaz with citrine and they do have an uncanny similarity e

Practical Materialism💸

Am I Materialistic? That's a wonderful question ladies & gentlemen! Despite my recent aquisition of this extremely rare vivid orange diamond from Leibish & Co. I don't think I am materialistic  because materialistic people only care the most about expensive things and buying them for the sake of their image. Like people who buys a overpriced luxury leather goods or branded items like Havaiinas rubber flip flops over regular rubber flip flops or iPhones versus regular smartphones which work pretty much desame and you still can't fuck both, or people who only takes care of imported expensive breed of dogs or cats and totally avoid regular ordinary pets or those who only wear branded clothes and underwear like Victoria's Secret lingeries which people would never see anyway. These idiots are the real materialistic because they are concerned of their image! They buy unecessary things or spend their money to feed their bruised & fake egos and then show them

Lost Ancient Philippine Goldsmith Technique

Image
Last June  I blogged  about the lost ancient goldsmithing technique of ancient filipinos that no modern jewelers could replicate that are being displayed at The Bangko Sentral Ng Pilipinas Museum and Ayala Museum in Makati.  Today there is a revival of that lost jewelry making technique but no matter how hard modern jewelers tried to replicate the old ways of jewelry making they cannot copy an exact replica coz they've been missing something that we no longer have in modern times and I have this feeling that the ancient filipino goldsmiths are using ancient alien technology to make elaborate jewelries.  The granulation technique of the ancient filipino jewelries is the best in the history of mankind! Even better than the Etruscans. The tiny well rounded symmetrical granules must have been made by some laser and anti gravity thingy of some sort of  lost ancient alien technology. The fact that the ancient designs could not be totally copied by even he best of modern
