Shanipriya 2012 – New lot of Natural Madagascar Iolite

Shanipriya 2012 - Natural Madagascar Iolite Shanipriya 2012 – Natural Madagascar Iolite

 

Iolite is the substitute gem for a natural Blue Sapphire. Alternatively known as Neeli in Hindi, it is an extremely powerful gem. It is the gem of Lord Saturn’s consort and is referred to, by the name of Shanipriya.

Gemstoneuniverse presents to you the new lot of fantastic natural Iolite from Madagascar – Shanipriya 2012. Iolite is also known as Cordierite or Dichroite (displaying two colors) and also called water sapphire.

Iolite is a Pleochroic gem, meaning that it exhibits a different color or a shade of color when viewed from different directions. The stone has been long-known to mankind and was used by the Vikings to locate the position of Sun and hence navigate their route on the sea.

While the pleochroism sets the gem apart and very useful, it is however presents great difficulty for the gem cutter – in case the gem is fashioned without careful assessment, the color uniformity could be lost. The gems have to cut carefully to restrict the play of yellow-brown shades and allow the violet blue color to remain dominant.

Each gemstone of Shanipriya 2012 –

-Is fully natural and untreated in any manner

-Is a Madagascar origin Iolite

-Has an appealing Royal Violet-Blue color

-Has great clarity

-Has great lustre

-Has abundant Planetary energies to help you in your gem therapy

-Has a very affordable gemstone price point

The only difficult you could possibly face would be in choosing WHICH one?

Note: Certification and appraisal process of all the gems in these two lots is complete and they will most certainly, be made available for online purchase within the next couple of weeks.

Comments Featured today is a natural Blue moonstone of 4.65 carats. This upratna has been set in Sterling Silver as a pendant.http://youtu.be/GhEX_YFxqGg

This particular blue moonstone is of Indian origin and is an oval cabochon cut with phenomenal adularescence. Blue Moonstones are phenomenal gems and exhibit adularescence.

These are gemstones of feldspar group and have a turbid transparency. When light moves across this surface, the moonstone displays a soft mobile blue reflection, which in the nonprofessional’s parlance is referred to as blue sheen.

One can easily distinguish the imitations from authentic moonstone the blue sheen/ adularia of the authentic moonstone is mobile and not just confined to the dome of the cabochon. Also, the imitation is likelier to be more milky in appearance.

Blue moonstone, also known as the chandrakant mani in Hindi is the upratna or the substitute gem for harnessing the energies of Moon/ Chandra.  It is used as a substitute gem for natural pearl. It is a gem well recognized and used extensively for by the ancients.

The Aura of Promise, The Splendor of Royalty – Two New Lots of Natural Yellow Topaz

by Leave a Comment

The Aura of Promise, The Splendor of Royalty – Two New Lots of Natural Yellow Topaz

“ A man who wears a faultlessly Yellow Topaz

possessed of a beautiful shade, weighty, exceedingly cool,

flawless and perfectly round, reaps fame,

heroism, happiness, wealth and length of days.”

 

Manimala: Treatise on Gems

So there you have the ancient view asserting the power of a natural unheated Topaz. Gemstoneuniverse presents to you two new lots of fully natural and unheated Yellow Topaz, rich and resplendent, pulsating with pure Jupiter energies.

Regalia 2012

Regalia 2012 - New Lot of natural unheated Impreial Golden Yellow Topaz Regalia 2012 – New Lot of natural unheated Impreial Golden Yellow Topaz

Regalia 2012 is all about the exotic and richly hued Imperial Golden Yellow Topaz. It is the finest produce of Brazilian mines in Ouro Preto, a city in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil – the famous gem producing area.

Yellow topaz otherwise is an abundantly available gem in nature, but Imperial Golden Yellow Topaz is a complete rarity and is only sourced from this particular mining area in  Brazil. It is this topaz that is the “True topaz” or the “Sherry topaz” and its color is often described as the muscatel color or golden honey brown.

A buyer must be especially careful as a cheaper and more abundantly available gem – citrine is palmed-off to the unaware buyer as a Topaz!

In most of the markets the most common material being peddled in the name of Yellow Topaz are glass (Yes Glass) and citrine/sunhela that gives zero value as a Gemstone for harnessing Jupiter energies. Read more bout this HERE.

One can be aware that the topaz will have much more lustre than citrine and will be in warmer tones.

Regalia 2012 is an exclusive lot, sourced with effort. Each gem of this lot

-          Is the Imperial Golden Yellow Topaz

-          Is fully natural and unheated

-          Has the coveted honey golden yellow color with ever so little hint of brown

-          Has excellent clarity

-          Is super lustrous

-          Has superb jyotish weight

-          Has phenomenal Jupiter energies

-          Have extremely affordable pricing despite the sourcing difficulty

This is a Gemstoneuniverse hotcake and might just vanish at lightening speed, so get yours fast!

Enjoy the lot Regalia 2012 in video:

 

 

Bella 2012

Bella 2012 - New lot of Natural unheated Yellow Topaz Bella 2012 – New lot of Natural unheated Yellow Topaz

 

As beautiful as the name of the lot, Bella is all about fine Brazilian Yellow Topaz. You will notice the palpable difference vis-à-vis the gems of Regalia. Both are natural and unheated but Regalia 2012 is class apart  as the rich color of the Imperial Golden yellow Topaz is natural (reason why this richly colored gem is called Imperial).

Bella 2012 is powerful in its own way with it butter yellow lusciousness and pristine aura. All gemstones of this lot –

-          Fully natural and unheated

-          Have excellent clarity

-          Is super lustrous

-          Have superb jyotish weight

Comments One look at the Talisman ring featured today and you know it is something extraordinary.

Take a look at the splendid natural Chrysoberyl cat’s eye gemstone set in Sterling Silver as a Ketu Talisman ring. It is a Sri Lankan cat’s eye of 2.04 carats displaying translucence and sharp chatoyancy. This cat’s eye is a honey gold in colour with shades of green giving it a great appeal.

Note that the symbol of Ketu stands in relief on the shanks. This is actually one of the first of the Planetary Bhasma Rings that Gemstoneuniverse has decided to launch for patrons.

What makes it extra special is the tubular design along the sides of the gem in the ring, has Ketu’s planetary herb Bhasma / sacred ash sealed within it.

Please watch this space for more on Planetary Bhasma rings. The launch with elaborate details will feature here shortly.

The patron had ordered this ring as additionally out of sheer curiosity while the Planetary Bhasma rings were still being worked on, by the Gemstoneuniverse team. We are delighted to share with you that the patron has good results to report.

According to Vedic Astrology, natural chrysoberyl Cat’s eye, also known as lehsunia, vaidurya and bidalaksh, is a phenomenal gemstone of Ketu or South Node of the Moon. It can used to harness the powers of Ketu and bring about more grounding, peace and stability in life as planetary periods of Ketu or certain specific placements of Ketu in the birth chart can be very difficult for the individuals.

He is placed centrally with 4 planets on either side, making is position just right to give the balanced view/ objective judgement.

-          Have great jyotish weight

-          Are domed cabochons (oval/ spherical and barrel shaped on top) with flat base.

For a white coral to be effective in Planetary Gem Therapy, it must be natural, treatment free and should NOT Dyed or Bleached or wax filled. You should be cautious about purchasing authentic white coral as unscrupulous elements are selling camel bone/ plastic to the unaware buyer. For more information on this, click here.

White Coral or safed moonga is the gemstone recommended in case of a debilitated Mars/ Mangal. A debilitated Mars in one’s birth chart can cause many problems for an individual because of disturbing, extreme emotions, inability to adjust well and several other problems on a psychological level. The health of the individual gets affected.

Wearing a White Coral lends tremendous stability and peace of mind in such cases and strengthens a person physically and emotionally.
