Lastly and not because of its level of importance, we see the magnificent spessartite garnets.

Australian Black Opals These kind of opals are the most valuable and widely known type of opal. Black opal is characterized by a dark body tone which can range from dark grey, blue, green to jet black. Unlike ordinary opals, black opals have carbon and iron oxide trace elements present, which cause the unusual darkness of the stone. Because of their dark body tone, the rainbow colors in a black opal stand out much better than lighter opals. This vibrancy of colour makes black opal the most valuable form of all opals. Often a black opal will have a natural layer of potch (colorless opal) left on the back of the stone, which can give the stone an extra darkness and vibrancy of colour. The darker this potch backing is, the darker the body tone, which usually makes for greater vibrancy of colour and a higher value black opal. This is the principle upon which doublets and triplets are based, which are an imitation of solid black opals. Black opals are generally cut into an oval shape, however this depends on the natural shape of the stone. Sometimes black opals are cut into freeform or teardrop shapes in order to maximize the size and carat weight of the stone. Black opals are normally cut with a low cabochon, due to the opal colour bar often being much thinner in black opal than in white or crystal opals. If the colour bar in an opal is thin, it is impossible to create a domed surface. Black opals are mostly mined in Lightning Ridge, in northern New South Wales. Lightning Ridge is famous for the black opal and hundreds of millions of dollars worth of black opals have been found there. In 2008, the black opal was named as the ‘gemstone emblem’ for New South Wales. Black opals have also been found at Mintabie in South Australia. Spessartite Garnets This gemstone is usually seen in orange to reddish brown hues. A gem quality spessartite or spessartine garnets can be very rare. These two names are not the only ones spessartite garnet is known by; spessartite garnets are known by a few names, including Fanta garnet, for the famed brilliant orange colour Mandarin spessartite garnets come in. The other tones, such as reddish-orange or brownish-orange come from iron impurities present in the gems. These iron impurities are so common that pure orange spessartites are considered incredibly rare and have a markedly higher price tag. Impurities and inclusions are not uncommon in Spessartite, which also will impact price. The most common of these inclusions will be wavy feathers that form in the gems due to liquid drops that become trapped in the gemstones. Asterisms, a star-like effect that appears on the surface of the stone due to inclusions within it, are also common. This inclusion, however, can actually increase the value of the gemstone. Spessartite also has an exceptionally high refractive index, which give Spessartite garnet a unique brilliance rivalled by few gemstones. Owing to this fact, Spessartite have an attractive brilliance when set with diamonds. Spessartite is one of six recognized species of garnets: spessartite, pyrope, almandine, grossularite, andradite, and uvarovite. Note: This bracelet cuff is an unique one of a kind piece.

Hemmerle

Celebrating its 125th anniversary in 2018, Hemmerle is a family-run, fourth-generation jewelry house that is at the forefront of elegant design. Each of the house’s handmade rings, earrings and other accessories is unique and an original work of wearable art.

Hemmerle has a distinguished history of crafting medals for Bavarian royalty and papal objects for the Vatican. Today, this luxury brand’s cutting-edge modern and Art Nouveau jewelry sees a merging of rare and precious gemstones with unconventional materials like aluminum, copper, and aged wood. Hemmerle produces approximately 200 pieces each year, and their master jewelers can spend 500 hours on a single creation.

Hemmerle was founded in Munich in 1893. Today Christian Hermmerle and his wife, Yasmin, are at the helm of this fine jewelry house and work alongside Christian’s parents, Stefan and Sylveli.

Hemmerle’s current design vision began in the 1990s with a client who shunned flashy gems and preferred to wear early 19th-century Berlin iron jewelry. Finding inspiration in the client’s preferred accessories, Stefan Hemmerle set a diamond in an iron band — this unlikely combination of working with a common metal and a precious stone help set in motion the new design direction for the firm.

Hemmerle has been involved in many exhibitions over the last two centuries, including the 1900 World’s Fair in Paris and the American Museum of Natural History’s “Beautiful Creatures” exhibit.

“The objects that they incorporate into their one-of-a-kind, beautiful jewelry — you can’t look at a Hemmerle piece and not have your mind expand as to what jewelry can be,” author and internationally renowned jewelry expert Stellene Volandes tells Introspective of the firm. “It’s all forward-looking and yet all historic at the same time. A lot of jewelry is like that.”

Hemmerle pieces are held in the collections of many museums, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, the Smithsonian Design Museum NYC and the Victoria Albert Museum in London.
