Why do we love gemstones?Well, you might say it's in our blood. At least Roman soldiers used to think so! They would pack garnets and rubies into open wounds to staunch the flow of blood!
Always in styleSo, since when have we had a passion for sparkling colour? Think back. Waaaaay back. Little bit more! Yup, a mere 4000 years or so ago (give or take about 1000 years), our Egyptian ancestors were crafting jewellery with beautiful gemstones. Amethyst, garnet, lapis lazuli, and opal are just a handful of the many gemstones coveted by Egyptians. Cleopatra was an avid fan of emeralds.
King Tut wore them, why not you?Egyptians used coloured gems to express themselves. Well, that idea worked so well we've been doing it ever since! At Ragnar, we select the most beautiful gemstones and craft our own designs around them. The splendor of coloured gems can be enhanced only by the exquisite settings we craft for them. Come in and express yourself the way only a Ragnar gem can!
