What are
Ammolites?
Ammolite is a precious gemstone highly coveted for its spectacular iridescence. Hand cut to maximise its brilliant colours, each stone is unique and no two are alike. Through fossilisation, tectonic pressure, heat and mineralisation, Ammolite has emerged as one of the world’s most sought-after gemstones, gaining more of a presence on the world’s stage through beautiful pieces of jewellery.
Where do Ammolites come from?
Ammolite stones are created through a natural happenstance of fossilised shells that once belonged to prehistoric ammonite molluscs, and can only be found within a 10sq km range of the Bearpaw Formation in Alberta, Canada. From the depths of the ocean, the unparalleled beauty of this gemstone can be admired through its brilliant colours and its impressive age of more than 70 million years.
How rare are Ammolites?
Ammolites are one of the rarest gemstones in the world. Gem-quality Ammolite can only be found in one place, the Bearpaw Formation in Alberta, Canada. And this is solely where stones for our exceptional jewellery are acquired.
