BIRTHSTONE
Opal, the enchanting birthstone of October, is a gem steeped in centuries of rich history and captivating myths. Its distinctive play of colors, which includes hues reminiscent of other precious gems, once led the Romans to believe it was the most precious and powerful of all stones. Bedouins, on the other hand, saw opals as containing captured lightning and believed they fell from the sky during thunderstorms. In ancient Greece, opals were thought to grant their owners the gift of prophecy while acting as guardians against disease. Meanwhile, across Europe, opals have been revered as symbols of hope, purity, and truth. This multifaceted gem, with its rainbow-like colors encapsulated within, has been associated with great power and good luck for generations. It's said to bring renewed hope, good karma, and a sense of balance to those who wear it, making opal a truly mystical and cherished birthstone.
THE HISTORY
The Egyptian Antiquity Pendant, meticulously crafted in 20k yellow gold, is a remarkable exemplar that harmoniously bridges ancient heritage with contemporary elegance. Its centerpiece holds profound historical significance in the form of a Byzantine Gold Bracteate, a relic hailing from 8th-9th century Egypt, composed of Egyptian faience and adorned with the revered Eye of Horus. This ‘all-seeing eye’ ancient symbol, synonymous with protection, healing, and omniscience, carries centuries of cultural importance. Embellished with 2.56 carats of exquisite diamonds and an array of vividly hued gemstones, including blue sapphire, yellow sapphire, orange sapphire, tsavorite, and emerald, the pendant narrates a captivating tale of cultural opulence and enduring allure. This unique fusion of historical reverence and masterful artistry epitomizes COOMI's unwavering commitment to preserving heritage while crafting timeless pieces that transcend epochs, rendering it an extraordinary and cherished masterpiece.
