Necklace Holders: Carving Their Stature In History
The Smithsonian Institution in Washington, DC is home to so much that's rare and fantastic in the world.The gems collection is spectacular and is held at the Museum of National History.
There you can see glorious crystals and minerals in their natural form, as well as some of the most incredible pieces of jewelry ever created. There are crowns worn by royalty, giant diamond earrings worn by the cursed French queen Marie-Antoinette.
They're all stunning and amazing, but nothing is more mysterious than the rare earth-green of the emerald. The Smithsonian is home to the most lovely emeralds ever known, and we're incredibly lucky to have them in this country.
One doesn't usually associate beautiful jewelry with the time of the Spanish Inquisition. But in the Smithsonian Institution's collection of gems, there's a beautiful necklace holder stand and a necklace badge holder of diamonds and emeralds.
It is a impressive double row of diamonds and emeralds ending in a chandelier of emeralds. There's sadly very little information about the provenance of these necklace holders. The massive diamonds and Columbian emeralds were most likely cut in India in the 17th century.
This would be one of the earliest examples of gemstones that are cut in the Smithonian's Collection. There are actually only legends surrounding this wall necklace holder display stand were used in this era. They indicate that it was worn at times by Spanish and French dignitaries.
In the early 20th century, it was acquired by the Maharajah of Indore, whose son sold the necklace in 1947 to Harry Winston. Winston subsequently sold the necklace to Mrs. Cora Hubbard Williams of Pittsburgh. She gave it to the Smithsonian in 1972.
Emeralds are a type of crystal known as beryls. Beryls are usually clear crystals, but when tinged with chromium or vanadium, they achieve diverse gradations of green. The purest green is the most rare emeralds and many folks essentially like an emerald that has a blue-green tint.
Before the 16th century, the sole known emerald deposits were in Cleopatra's Egyptian mines. But after emeralds were found in Columbia, those became the gold standard in emeralds.
Columbian emeralds have been discovered by archaeologists among artifacts of such clans as the Inca, Maya, Aztec, Toltec and the lesser-known Chibcha Indians. Emeralds are among the rarest of gemstones and can be dearer per carat than even the best diamonds!
They are definitely a hard mineral, with a Moh's toughness scale of 7 or 8 ( compared against a diamond's ten ). While most emeralds are found in Africa and Russia, there were discoveries of emerald deposits in North Carolina!
