Jeremejevite: One of the most rarest crystals on earth





Since moving to Arlington, TX, a DFW suburb, I stumbled upon this gem of a store. The owner, Trey, is super friendly and knows his stuff when it comes to gems and minerals. Trey does it all: he wire wraps, solders, cuts gems and minerals shaping them into cabs (cabachons for those of you who are not nerds like me) facets gems like emerald and diamonds. I'm so glad I found Trey and his shop which is right across the street from my apartment. 

 Today I went over to Power of The Rainbow to pick out a moonstone for a commission. And maybe a couple of extras to wrap and sell. Trey and I got to talking about Phenakite and, yes, I'm gonna make some earrings, but he pulled out this little, tiny, almost microscopic piece that had a name so huge. This piece, he told me, would sell for about $300ish on the market. He was selling it for $50. Why? Because Trey is the type of person who, when he gets  good deal, he makes sure he passes that on to his customers. 

 Anyway, Trey was kind enough to let me take a couple of photos of the Jeremejevite and blog about it. Who knows? One of you may want that $50 piece for your collection! 


What is Jeremejevite besides a super long name? Pronounced ye-REM-ay-ev-ite, (Yes I had trouble so I shortened it to J-vite), Jeremejevite  is a colorless, sky blue, or pale yellow stone. Jeremejevite is a rare aluminium borate mineral with variable fluoride and hydroxide ions. Its chemical formula is Al6B5O15(F,OH)3.The highest quality comes from Namibia. In nature it occurs in small obelisk-shaped crystals and has in the past been mistaken for Aquamarine. It was named after Russian mineralogist  Pavel Jeremejev, who discovered the mineral in 1883.

 Jeremejevite has a high vibration and can be used to help manifest second-sight in order to provide the capability of "future telling". It helps to understand life and complete and follow through with decisions. Jeremejevite recognizes resolved courses of action is error free--in other words: no regrets for past mistakes. Move on.

Jeremejevite is used to dispel complexes (superiority, inferiority, etc) to lessen sorrow and stimulate insight to understand the conditions which produced the sorrow so one can eliminate regret. 

 Jeremejevite is excellent in assisting one to progress through changes. It can be used to encourage orderly progression in the growth and maturity of the physical body and to eliminate disorganized cellular growth. 

 Power of The Rainbow currently has three pieces of Jeremejevite for sale. They also have several Phenakite, Petallite, Moldavites, quartz, and an amazing variety of gemstones.

Daryl Thompson Taught Me More Than Just How To Wire Wrap Gemstones Into Jewelry.  Painting of Daryl by a fan. (I don't know their name) Before I go into detail about his legendary music, let me introduce Daryl to you from my eyes.  In 2007, I was in Atlanta walking through Little 5 Points trying to sell my art. I was broke, a student in Job Corps, trying to make extra cash to help my mother get off the streets. I found myself in Elegance Boutique and met Denise and Daryl for the first time. The Daryl I met was kind, caring, and very informative about jewelry and gemstones. I felt at home from that first moment and knew that these two people were special. Time passed and I became close to them both. Daryl needed a website and online presence for his music. I didn't know he was a musician. I thought, "Okay cool. He can rock out," I had no idea of the gem I found until I was typing up his music resume for the website and learned he was a Grammy winner. Yes

Gemstones: Semi Precious and Precious

Image
What Are Precious and Semi Precious Gemstones? When most people think of gemstones, they think of diamonds, rubies, and sapphires. They don't think of phenakite, moldavite, morganite, alexandrite, carnelian, cinnabar, or others. Most people think of precious stones. And semi precious stones like amethyst and citrine come to mind also.  So what makes them precious or semi precious? Definition of a Gemstone First, a gemstone or jewel is a mineral that is been cut and polished to sparkle and dazzle. All gemstones are not minerals though. Some are organic like amber and pearl. Today, diamonds, emeralds, rubies, and sapphire are considered precious stones and the rest are semi precious. Why? I have no clue. It's just the way modern society has it and they got their ideas from the Ancient Greeks. Read more here. But gemstones such as Tsavorite, a form of green garnet, can cost more than an emerald. Why? Because some semi precious stones are rare. Gemstone Groups
