Kashmiri Sapphires & ancient Basra Moti

[Guest guest]

Dear All,

 

I have posted pics of Kashmiri Sapphires. They are embedded in

Ganesha shape and a ring. Kashmiri sapphires are rare types not just

because of their quality but because of their scarcity. The old

mines in Kashmir are not easily accessible.

 

The total production is just 5 Kg a year which is far lesser then

other mines. The other problem is the lab tests. Lab reports do not

confirm their origin. Only GIA has a technique which proves the

origin. The cost of these original Kashmiri Sapphires is ten times

the cost of a Ceylonese sapphire.

 

These stones were cut from raw rough purchased from old mines of

Kashmir. I still posses a raw material of fine quality which weighs

around 250 Grams. This rough can be tested and proved through GIA.

 

The pearl in the photograph is an original moti with a diamond

embedded on the top. The other pearl is a basra pearl in its

original shape. It is very old too.

 

For all those who purchase sapphires, they should know that most of

the rough received from the mines of Ceylon is heated prior to

sending. Heating experts say that this is done in order to increase

the price. You can also get rough from Chattisgarh area of MP but

those mines are controlled by Mafia or terrorist groups.

 

You can also get good rough in Assam. The ruby rough is available

but that rough is sold by Naxalites and one needs a lot of courage

to buy it from them. This is very serious problem which is taking

place all over India.

Dear Sir,

 

In natural order Moon and Venus related stones cannot go together.

But there are combinations in which they can really effect well. For

example if you are born in Libra ascendant and Venus and Moon are

present in ascendant itself, then a combination is very fruitful.

 

Natural and temperary significance is sundued by Tatkalic effects.

 

Regards

Hi Len,

 

Moon is not enemy with Venus, but Venus IS unfriendly with Moon. So in

making a talisman we must see primary intent. If Moon is primary gem

then he is not unfriendly with diamond (secondary stone), but if

Diamond is primary stone then he isn't friendly with Moon and one

shouldn't add pearl. In Sri Navaratna setting the combination of all

gems is auspicious because they are set in order of the Nava Graha

Yantra.

 

Best rgds,

Richard
