Silver has been the best performing asset in recent years outperforming equities, property and most asset classes over a 3, 5 and 10 year period. The declining and very small supply of silver; significant industrial demand and perhaps most importantly significant and increasing demand will keep the price of silver rising. This is an excellent value for the quality and the price.
Ammonites are the fossilized, hard shells of extinct mollusks that existed from the Paleozoic to the end of the Cretaceous era. Their closest relative is the chambered Nautilus from the Pacific and Indian oceans. After millions of years the original shell is slowly replaced by minerals such as agate or calcite. These creatures lived in the seas between 240 - 65 million years ago, when they became extinct along with the dinosaurs.
This is a spectacular pendant--Just think, you'd be wearing the actual fossilized shell of a creature that lived 150 million years ago!
Baltic Amber
Thousands of years ago people were fascinated by the extraordinary, inexplicable properties of the golden pebbles found on beaches and in coastal forests. The stone burnt when cast into the fire, exuding a pleasant resinous smell and aromatic smoke, and, when rubbed, attracted various small light items towards itself as if by magic.
The stone interior would often hide small undamaged plants and insects, which must also have found their way inside by magic. That sufficed to arouse the curiosity of primitive man, with admiration and respect for this unusual gem. It is no wonder man started attributing magical powers to amber."
To stand the test of time, a classic piece of jewelry must delivery pleasing combination symmetry, balance and proportion. Together, these qualities equal Harmony. If you love the lightness and warmth of amber combined with sleek cool setting, this may just be the multitasking heirloom piece for you.
Citrine is an exquisite semi-precious gemstone and is the birthstone for November. In ancient times, citrine was carried as a protection against snake venom and evil thoughts. Today citrine is known as the merchant's stone and is associated with success and prosperity.

Reviews
Mariagrazia never fails to produce a quality piece and joyful smiles upon seeing the order in person. The larimar and prehnite combination is gorgeous and the peridot and citrine compliment them perfectly. Excellent communication.
The stalactite pendant is unlike anything else I have. I have a few pendants from Diamond M and am enjoying the boldness of the amber set for a different look. Mariagrazia is a top artist.
