Speaking of special jewellery and rare stones, it’s impossible not to mention one of the most intriguing gems of all time - dark blue sapphires with “inner silk” threads.
They absorb light, instead of reflecting it and are creating a “velvet” effect - you might find yourself very attracted to the thought of touching those special stones. They look so soft and almost like they are painted by some very talented artist.

5 curious facts about Kashmir sapphires, the Indian kings of precious stones:
The original stones were coming from one of the parts of Himalayan mountains called Zanskar. As for now, the mines are long closed. Since the 19th century there was not one sapphire that was mined in Himalayan.
There are 3 main colors for this jewellery: Azure blue sapphire, cornflower and Royal blue shade.
The white lines you can see inside of the gem are called “eternal silk”. The more of them you see, the less shiny the stone will be.
