Humphrey Collier Cube

Colored gemstones 7 x 5 mm, baguette cut, cord 0.5 mm

The Cube pendant is elegant but wearable every day. It is delicate, comfortable to wear, and not to be overlooked because of the colored gemstone. It emphasizes the personality of the wearer. The outer surfaces are matte. The inner surfaces are polished and thus reflect plenty of light. All edges are softened and feel smooth. Humphrey uses a nickel-free stainless steel. The weight is perfectly balanced – so the stone always faces forward.

The colored gemstone is held by the force (tension) of the setting. It seems to literally float. To ensure this, two notches in the shape of the colored gemstone are made using computer-controlled machines.

Humphrey has perfected this setting technique since the mid-90s and offers a 2-year warranty on the secure hold of the gemstone with proper care. However, the lifespan is unlimited. Most jewelry pieces ever produced by Humphrey are still worn today.

The integrated necklace is a delicate 0.5 mm stainless steel cable that fits perfectly around the neck. The clasp is equipped with a push button, making it very easy to open and close – and securely closed.

On this necklace, the pendant is fixed and prevents the clasp from turning forward.

Amethyst Violet:

The Amethyst is a stone that exerts a special fascination because of its dark violet color. The word violet means immense strength. The color appears in nature wherever there is special power and energy.

The name of the Amethyst comes from the ancient Greeks. They believed the stone protected against drunkenness. According to an old legend, the Amethyst was a nymph whom Bacchus, the god of wine, had fallen in love with. However, the nymph did not return this love and his advances were rejected. She asked the goddess Diana for help, and she transformed her into a gemstone. When Bacchus realized he had lost his love, he poured his best wine over the stone, which then changed color. This gave the stone a protective effect against drunkenness.

Lolite Gray-Blue:

According to a study, iolite, also called cordierite, may have served Viking navigation even under cloudy skies due to its ability to make polarized light visible. This so-called sunstone is known from legendary traditions.

Iolite is derived from the Greek "ion" and means violet.

The predominant color of iolite is deep blue to blue-violet.

With a Mohs hardness of 7 to 7.5, iolite belongs to the hard minerals.

Tourmaline Pink:

The name tourmaline comes from the Sinhalese word "tura mali." Translated, it means "stone with mixed colors."

An old legend from Egypt says that a tourmaline traveled on the long journey from inside the earth up to the sun over a rainbow. Along the way, it absorbed all the colors of the rainbow. That is why it is still called the "gemstone of the rainbow" today. Tourmaline comes in more than 50 shades from colorless through pink, red, yellow, brown, green, and blue to black. A single crystal can often display several colors.

At Humphrey, only pink and green tourmalines are used.

Thanks to its excellent hardness of 7 to 7.5 on the Mohs scale, the stone is suitable for jewelry of all kinds.

Topaz Blue and Green:

Topaz gets its name from an island in the Red Sea, which was called Topazos in ancient times. However, a different mineral, olivine, was actually mined there and was long mistaken for topaz. Another explanation of the name traces back to the Sanskrit word Tapas, meaning "fire" or "glow."

Topaz has been known for at least 2000 years and is among the gemstones that form the foundations of the twelve gates to the New Jerusalem, the city of God. These stones were meant to symbolize beauty, brilliance, and protection from enemies.

The colors of topaz range from yellow, light blue, light green, yellow-brown, reddish-brown, red, violet, to colorless. Humphrey uses exclusively blue and white topazes. Many topazes are color-treated. This is also true for our blue topazes, as otherwise they would command enormous prices.

With a rating of 8 on the 10-point Mohs scale, topaz is one of the hardest gemstones – only diamond, sapphire, and ruby are harder.

A colored gemstone brings joy on many days and lasts a lifetime!
