Lapis And Peridot Novels & Stories

Bella was eyeing one of them. Thankfully, she had a big mouth and had mentioned the lineup of jewelry she wanted to own to Emily. Her taste was okay. She deserved to be Derek Thompson's daughter. However, she was messing with the wrong woman and would find out the consequences. A woman came out from behind the stage and placed the first piece of jewelry in front of the auctioneer. A set of jewelry made of peridot. The stone material was just one small thing that made it special. It was believed to have once belonged to Cleopatra.

Beryl could clearly see their unwillingness, so she didn't insist and left with Opal. "Do you know…" 'She's at this again' Lani thought but didn't interrupt her. "…Beryl is also a gemstone like Opal." Lani blinked her eyes trying to absorb what she was actually telling her. “Really!?” “Hmm, Emerald belongs to the Beryl family.” "What!! So that means even their names are rich like them." Remembering the outfit and fabric Beryl was wearing. And, of course, her heels… and her watch, that looked too expensive.

For convenience, the shop had been closed that day, only serving Jake and Ann. The shopkeeper invited Ann to sit in the shop comfortably, and some of the shop assistants brought some types of jewelry from the newest collection. Ann could tell that these jewels were all costly and of high quality from the gleam of their light. Besides being made of gold, the gemstones that adorn them were stunning. Emerald, topaz, rose quartz, ruby, peridot, tourmaline, onyx, diamond, jadeite, opal, sapphire, alexandrite. The price was hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars per carat.

Jenny muttered in surprise. "Yes, you're right. This is a lapis lazuli stone from the Renaissance era." Mr. Lawson smiled at her and nodded proudly. Jenny, however, felt a little bad. An ancient lapis lazuli stone of such refined quality was a precious treasure, and Mr. Lawson must have spent great effort to collect it.

Stephens never disappointed, but this time, he had outdone himself. I reached for the first box, the one lined in deep blue velvet. Inside was a necklace that seemed almost alive. The centerpiece was a pinkish-orange gem that looked like a captured sunset, surrounded by smaller white diamonds that shimmered under the desk lamp. I remembered Stephens saying, “This stone, Mr. Blackwood is rare; its Padparadscha sapphire. It symbolizes eternal passion and grace. It’s one of the rarest sapphires in the world, perfect for a woman who inspires both.”

The chain of the pendant was also made of rose gold. “Wow! This is so pretty” said Lily with her eyes wide open and then a sweet smile curved on her lips. “Not more than you, Love” replied Nick smiling while looking at her admirably. “This is the rare Pink Sapphire, right?” asked Lily in a muddled tone and Nick nodded and stroked her hair. “How did you get one?” asked Lily in a curious tone. “I have good connections” replied Nick with a wink. “I belong to Dark Sapphire pack not Pink Sapphire” said Lily with narrowed eyes.

Teardrop shaped emeralds adorned her earshells. "Do you like this necklace?" She hated those red rubies to the extent of glaring at Icarus to which he smiled and replied his voice getting huskier. "I have same thoughts as my queen and cannot seem to like it no matter how I look, I have brought something else for you." Rubies were replaced by sun gold sapphires that somewhat resembled the colour of Icarus's eyes making Lalya seemingly look at the male in hazed delusion. Was this his way of telling her that he shall from now he owned her?

He said, his eyes narrowing as he stared at my face. I felt even more motivated to see how interested he was. Without heading, I sat upright and said, “I’ll be launching my new jewel. The new Jewel will be made from a rare material known like Pinite and I’ll be adding a very few touch of gemstones in it.” “That’s amazing! You know, your mom has thought of making jewels with painite some years ago but she wasn’t able to achieve it. I’m glad you are able to do something she’s never been able to do.”

Lin Yilan's wandering thoughts returned to the shopkeeper's incessant sales pitch. She seriously considered which crystal cup Jasmine would prefer, examining the subtle differences in the natural ice-crack patterns with due diligence. Lapis lazuli bracelets, ripple-patterned crystal cups, hand-woven cloud-silk square rugs, Dream Epiphyllum dew... The long shopping list made Lin Yilan want to sigh. Her original intention was merely to visit an old friend she hadn't seen in a long time, but the result was this—

It was so beautiful! If outsiders were there, they would know that the bangle was made of top quality jade; a glassy species called green jadeite. It was translucent and looked stunning. There was no doubt it was the best of the best. However, there was a name carved on the glassy jade bangle. Charlotte Larson.
