🇧🇷 GEMSTONES FROM BRAZIL 🇧🇷 EMERALDS "

🇧🇷 GEMSTONES FROM BRAZIL 🇧🇷 EMERALDS "⁠The Future is Brilliant" - What is luxury?
⁠
I was caught talking to Ara Vartanian about his initiative and I cannot agree more! Contemporary thinking about luxury needs to evolve in line with the challenges of our times, and our understanding of luxury needs to be renewed in order to reach new milestones 🥇 ⁠We need to value our natural treasures and our unmistakable craftsmanship by improving the quality of life of artisan communities throughout our beloved Brazil 💚⁠
⁠
Look at this gorgeous sustainable sourced Brazilian emeralds ⁠from ⁠Belmont Mine 😍 PERFECTION! The Belmont property was originally a cattle ranch and remains one today. But since 1978, Belmont has also operated a well-known emerald mine. It is managed by Marcelo Ribeiro, whose grandfather discovered emeralds on the ranch by accident! Could you imagine discovering an emerald mine in your back garden? 😱⁠
⁠
💚GEM FACT ⁠
⁠
Did you know the geography of emeralds defines the price more than the beauty of the actual stones? What I find even more surprising is that Brazil lighter shade emeralds are more in trend than the juicy dark green emeralds I alway dream of 🤩 Whether it is determined by the cheaper price point or by simply a colour preference... it is a mystery to me!⁠
⁠
If you are looking for a specific Brazilian gemstone, please send me a direct message and all of your gemstone dreams will come true, I promise 🤩🌟 🌟 @LizaUrla #jewelleryface #gemologue ⁠

🇧🇷 GEMSTONES FROM BRAZIL 🇧🇷 RUBELITE 💗 Today's mood is all about being as sparkly and as bright as we can be! So I am matching my #JEWELLERYFACE to the many faces of tourmalines ♥️ What gives you the extra sparkle? ⁠
⁠
I can imagine visiting a mining operation and witnessing the challenges involved in bringing coloured gemstones out of the earth, gives you a real sense of perspective on how rare and valuable these gemstones really are ♥️ Have you ever visited a mine? Please share your experience in comments - where in the world and what was the name of the mine?⁠
⁠
GEM FACTS⁠
⁠
🌟 Rubelite belongs to the bright and colourful family of tourmalines it is in fact a super-gorgeous pink tourmaline⁠
⁠
🌟 Because of its deep rich colour, varying from ⁠deep pinkish-red to slightly purplish red, this gem is often compared to the magnificent ruby⁠

🇧🇷 GEMSTONES FROM BRAZIL🇧🇷 TOURMALINE⁠ 🌟 Ending this day in tourmaline heaven⁠, ⁠admiring a private collection of tourmalines at Real Gems in Rio⁠ 💫 What is your favourite tourmaline colour? ⁠

Although the beauty of tourmaline gems can be found throughout Brazil, the main mining hub is in Minas Gerais, where tourmaline can be found in various colours from orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet 🧡💛💚💙💜 ⁠ I have read that in the history of gemstones, tourmaline is a latter-day Cinderella 👸 Whereas aquamarine was known to the Egyptians over 5,000 years ago, tourmaline was not discovered until the mid-1500s in Brazil, and even then, it was mistakenly heralded as emerald😯⁠
⁠
GEM FACT 🌟 ⁠
⁠
🌟 Tourmaline was not discovered until 1554 when Francisco Spinoza’s expedition discovers the beauty of “Brazilian emerald”: the first recorded green tourmaline crystal💚⁠
⁠
🌟 ⁠Only in 1793 tourmaline was recognized as a distinct mineral species 😲 For hundreds of years this heavenly gem was mistakenly heralded as emerald ⁠
⁠
If you are looking for a specific Brazilian gemstone, please send me a direct message and all of your gemstone dreams will come true, I promise 🤩

⁠🇧🇷GEMSTONES OF BRAZIL 🇧🇷 IMPERIAL T

⁠🇧🇷GEMSTONES OF BRAZIL 🇧🇷 IMPERIAL TOPAZ⁠ 💗⁠ Considering the national gemstone of Brazil is the heavenly topaz, it makes sense for me to start my gemstone journey with this dreamy gem! How much do you adore this gem from 1-10? 😍⁠ Tag someone who would love this little slice of heaven!
⁠
Can you guess what my most favourite quality about this gem is?! Of course, its magical vivid purplish pink colour 😲 This hue of topaz is not as popular as its blue brother in Brazil but, I am so attracted and captivated by its beauty 😍 Topaz has been recovered from Ouro Preto mines in Minas Gerais for over 200 years, with the first discoveries recorded in 1768, when the Portuguese court of King Joseph I marked the discovery of the gem in their Brazilian colony 👑 ⁠
⁠
💗⁠GEM FACT ⁠
⁠
💗Topaz with the red, pink, or orangy yellow colour component is extremely rare and highly valued⁠
⁠
💗One of the most sought-after colours is known as “Imperial” topaz, which most in the trade consider a medium reddish-orange to orange-red ⁠
⁠
💗Topaz crystals are usually columnar and cut as oval or pear shapes to improve their yield⁠

When it comes to photography and capturing my most flattering angles, @juliaflitphotography knows best 🤩 It is incredible how much I trust her creative eye and her photography talent 🧡 I think being photographed is a very intimate and personal experience, and believe it or not, I don’t particularly enjoy being photographed lately and very much prefer advanced selfie with a professional camera 📷 If you could see me doing this, you would understand what I am talking about 🤣 Definitely not as glamorous as it looks, but surely very amusing to watch 😂⁠
