Humphrey Pendant Navette

with topaz blue 4 x 4 mm Princess

The Navette pendant is a classic form of jewelry and very elegant. It is delicate, comfortable to wear and attracts attention. It underlines the personality of the wearer.

The pendant is matted. All edges are softened and feel soft. Humphrey uses a nickel-free stainless steel.

The colored gemstone is held by the force (tension) of the stainless steel pendant. He literally seems to be floating. To ensure this is safe, two notches in the shape of the colored gemstone are made using computer-controlled machines.

Humphrey has perfected this setting technique since the mid-1990s and offers a 2-year guarantee that the gemstone will be held securely if handled properly. However, the lifespan is unlimited. Most of the jewelry Humphrey ever produced is still worn.

The pendant can be worn on a rubber necklace, a snake chain, a Venetian chain or a rope.

Topaz:

Topaz takes its name from an island in the Red Sea, which was called Topazos in ancient times. In fact, another mineral, olivine, was mined there and was long confused with topaz. Another explanation of the name comes from the Sanskrit word tapas, which means "fire" or "light".

Topaz has been known for at least 2,000 years and is one of the gemstones that form the foundations of the twelve gates to the New Jerusalem, the city of God. These stones were intended to serve as a symbol of beauty, splendor and defense against enemies.

The color of topaz range from yellow, light blue, light green, tawny, reddish brown, red, purple and colorless. Humphrey only uses blue and white topazes. Many topazes change color through treatment. This also applies to our blue topazes, as they would otherwise attract enormous prices.

With a grade of 8 on the 10-part Mohs scale, topaz is one of the hardest of all gemstones - only diamond, sapphire and ruby ​​are harder.

A colored gemstone brings joy for many days and for a lifetime!
