Ammolite for Jewelry
Ammolite is often used in pendants, earrings and statement rings. Due to its relative softness, it is commonly set in protective mountings or used in earrings and pendants where it experiences less impact.
Canadian Ammolite
Most gem-quality ammolite comes from Alberta, Canada. Canadian ammolite is prized for its strong color play and is one of the few gemstones of organic origin officially recognized as a gemstone.
Ammolite Cabochons
Ammolite is typically cut as cabochons to highlight its natural color flash. These smooth, polished stones enhance the layered iridescence and are ideal for custom jewelry designs.
Ammolite Doublets and Triplets
Because ammolite is relatively delicate, many stones are assembled as doublets or triplets with protective layers to improve durability while preserving their vibrant appearance.

Love the precise descriptions and calibrations of hte loose gemstones. Would like to have seen more variety in the size gem I was looking for.

I was looking for a small gift for a friend- the process is the same as every other time and was very simple, and she even got her gift early! On the downside, there's no way to easily keep track of multiple Shipping Addresses, so if I want to send a gift to Friend A and to Friend B, I have to overwrite everything and it's a fair bit clunky in that regard.
