Humphrey Colored Steel Pendulum (incl. Rope)

Colored gemstones 4 x 4 mm Princess

The pendant is a classic of our company. Hardly any pendant combines elegance, sportiness, and design so skillfully. It is wearable every day.

The colored gemstone is beautifully showcased and cannot be overlooked. The pendant 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. This highlight should not be missing in any private jewelry collection!

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 of the jewelry pieces ever produced by Humphrey are still worn today.

As a necklace, the following options are available: rubber necklace, Venetian chain, snake chain, or ropes. Depending on the choice of necklace, the pendant can be elegant or sporty.

Humphrey uses only very good quality colored gemstones. Certain variations in color, however, cannot be avoided. It is nature!

Iolite Blue-Violet:

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 something like 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 and Green:

The name tourmaline comes from the Sinhalese word "tura mali." Translated, it means something like "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 to pink, red, yellow, brown, green, blue, and 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:

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, which 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 City of God of the New Jerusalem. These stones were meant to symbolize beauty, brilliance, and protection against 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 of all gemstones – only diamond, sapphire, and ruby are harder.


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