'Ròs tearc' Scottish Pink Tourmaline on a Scottish Gold & Silver Pendant
£1725
​
The centrepiece of this beautiful necklace is a cabochon of extremely rare Scottish Pink Tourmaline (Rubellite). Full excavation permissions gained, this material was sourced from Glenbuchat, a privately owned estate in the Cairngorms, in the late eighties/early nineties. The material we have was obtained during a private geological outing, led by Dr David Anderson, Michael McMullen & geologist Andy Moffat. The aim was to determine if there was a motherlode of this gemstone, after shards were spotted on the ground surface. Sadly, only the surface material was ever found, and permissions have since closed - so there is no more of this very rare Scottish gemstone to be had.
The craftsmanship exhibited in the goldwork of this pendant is truly remarkable, showcasing meticulous attention to detail and intricate carvings in the form of Celtic knotwork. Partial areas of the Celtic knotwork and the claws embracing the gemstone are crafted from genuine hallmarked 'ALBA' 14-carat Scottish Gold, beautifully complementing the 925 sterling silver base.

Elie Ruby & 14ct Scottish Gold Sterling Silver Ring
£735
​
Both exquisitely detailed and delicate, this Elie Ruby ring makes for a wonderful 'forever ring'. Perfect for a wedding, eternity or even an engagement ring. Beautifully detailed set size ring, featuring an intricately carved band, and set in hallmarked 14ct Scottish gold collet; a fiery red Elie Ruby.
This short stretch of coast is called Ruby Bay by the locals, thanks to the rare red gemstones known as 'Elie Rubies' that are washed out of the volcanic rock and can be found by patient searching through the sand. The stones are actually a special type of garnet coloured by chromium rather than iron, which gives them a particularly vivid shade and led to their rather grand nickname.
