The rare and exceptional benitoite for unique
jewellery There are various types of gemstones
that can do justice to exceptional crafted and
creatively designed pieces, besides diamonds.
Most people do not even realize the whole range
of stones that are available, some expensive and
rare, and others that are more affordable for
regular pieces.
What is Benitoite? Benitoite is one such gemstone
that we rarely hear about due to its scarcity,
and so far, is only found in California, in the
US. This stone is similar to sapphires and
displays pleochroism, which means that it looks
different from different angles. The stones are
not very hard, coming to a mere 6 on Mohs scale.
The stones are generally cut into round brilliant
cuts, as the stone is multi-faceted with high
dispersion and refractive index asking trusted
jewellers in Melbourne CBD, can give one a
clearer idea of the cost of the stone, once set
into jewellery. More brides are choosing
coloured stones for the best engagement rings in
Melbourne CBD. Although a rare and expensive
gemstone, this has not stopped it from being a
popular choice for couples looking to splurge on
their rings. This stone is, however, not the
ideal choice, if one wishes to wear the jewellery
pieces for regular use. This is due to the fact
that they are not as hard as diamond rings in
Melbourne, making them perfect for occasional
wear only as they can get damaged. Most jewellers
will be more than happy to discuss the
possibilities of custom designs for exceptional
pieces of jewellery.
