It was surrounded by a halo of tiny black onyx stones. “It’s… beautiful,” I breathed, my voice barely audible. Antonio smiled, clearly pleased with my reaction. “It’s one-of-a-kind,” he said proudly. “The sapphire is from Ceylon — known for its clarity. The setting is platinum, designed to last a lifetime.” Talon’s hand flexed ever so slightly on my back, and I could feel his eyes on me. “Try it on,” he said quietly, his voice low and rough.

“I see that you brought some papers as well. Give that to me. I hope they’re sample designs.” “They are,” I confirm, and she flips through them immediately as soon as I hand over the files. Her face immediately goes slack with surprise and admiration. “Oh, these are gorgeous! I love the one that you designed with obsidian stones!” She shows me one of the sample designs, the interwoven gold that Émeraude is famous for, dotted with little emeralds. “I want this. Maybe don’t release this just yet because I want one for me that I can show off to my friends.”

Something was so common between us, there is no mistaking it. Our eyes. Just looking at it made me want to claw my eyes out. That deep-set violet shade had taken over my once hazel eyes, infecting me with the colour I had admired about Jasper. Now it belongs to me too, although, it hardly amounts to what I see in Jasper's eyes. His are alight and dazzling, vivid with colour. Mine are still bland and rather lifeless.

’ ‘But you’re still going out with Fabrizio today. ‘Would it help if I told you we won’t be alone? He’s bringing two assistants. I’ll be mostly talking to Louis-François, our engraver. I need to check with him if champlevé enamel works with the materials I’ve got in mind. Then there’s Peter Carl. He’s our stone guy. We’re looking at peridot and black diamonds—’ I stopped. I’d been rambling. ‘Anyway, it’s work.’ Ashton slowed the car. ‘We’re here.’

Judging from what he said, he wanted to purchase more than one piece, which made him a big client. Not daring to delay at all, she brought the two over to the display area of the clear and cream-clear jadeites. "Sir, these are clear jadeites and these are cream-clear jadeites," she introduced. While she proceeded to explain each piece, Leon glanced at the cabinets before him. Apart from a few clear jadeites, there were even jewelry pieces made from imperial green and imperial purple amethyst. "These pieces aren't so bad!" Leon focused on the imperial green and imperial purple amethyst.

And standing up close to it and seeing just what the harborage was her breath was taken away. It was a massive oasis located right in the middle of the blazing desert looking like it were a collection of gemstones come to life. There were trees of different heights and sizes with the colour and texture of sodalite, lepidolite and malachite. Flowers of different types with the colour and texture of angelite, citrine, rose quartz and carnelian. Grass that ran across the floor of the entire oasis with the colour and texture of aventurine and shrubs scattered here and there with the colour and texture of hematite and black tourmaline. A large waterfall with water the colour of lapis lazuli. Rock

“A sweater chain necklace with personalized pendant—it’s not a perfume bottle.” “No. It has no scent, and it’s empty?” She wasn’t sure about her answer anymore. This conversation affected, and again, it was because of me. “It looks like a Lapis lazuli.” “A Lapis what?” Gael asked. “A deep blue rock. A long time ago, this rock is expensive than gold. A Tsarevich egg is made of this stone for Empress Alexandra.” “And who the fuck is Empress Alexandra?” Frost asked, mocking Darick.

And Alina didn’t choose the price any more, she wanted to show quite familiar options: be it pearls, quite famous here, or less expensive tourmaline, aquamarine, rock crystal, amethyst, moonstone, opal, rauchtopaz and sun stone. She did not ignore quite inexpensive and affordable jasper, agate, chalcedony and other ornamental stones. She would have made more products and used more stones, but she quickly ran out of time and stones, and she will just take the new ones from the master. But she ordered more this time, much more.

I huddled it close to my chest, and pulled myself out of my stupor as he approached. “You found it?” I beamed. “I did. Here you go,” he said, and he dropped a small notepad on top of the hefty book already clutched in my arms. Its pages were curled, and the front was a mossy green that had been spoilt over the centuries by water damage and coffee stains. “What’s that one?” He asked, nodding to the other book I was holding. “Oh. I’m not really sure. Do you know what it is? It says ‘Luna Lapis’ on the front. I thought it might have something to do with your pack.”

she encourages, bubbling with excitement. I chuckle and eagerly take the necklace out of the box, then clasp it around my neck. “How does it look on me?” I ask, modelling the necklace proudly. “Gorgeous, of course!
