Basra Pearl – Reviving the Magic

Natural Basra Pearl Set.Basra 2.59- 2.99 carats

Huge News- Gemstoneuniverse makes rare Basra pearls available to its patrons-The Gemstoneuniverse value advantage

Pearls have forever fascinated the human eye. An organic gem made painstakingly by the mollusc over many years and found only by the discerning in the depths of waterbodies, it hold special charm with its characteristically gentle appearance. With no sharp edges, the edge is taken off from the beholder’s vision too and all that remains is a tender appreciation of this mellow miracle of nature.

The ingenious invention of Kokichi Mikimoto, who is also known as the father of the modern pearl farming gave the world of pearls a new twist. Today the markets are awash with cultured pearls so fine! It is no longer a rarity.

One could however look at it this way – Because the cultured pearls are available aplenty, the true value of natural pearls has come to the fore outlinging its rarity and value and benefits.

What are Basra Pearls?

Pearls originating from the Persian / Arabian Gulf have a legendary reputation in the world of gems. Famously known as the Basra pearls, these have enthralled many a pearl aficionados. The city of Al Basrah or Basra in modern day Iraq, was a bustling hub in the yesteryears where Pearl trade was concerned. The name that the pearls got was from the trading center and not because they originated there. These pearls are ones that have been harvested from the Persian Gulf off the coast of countries like, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, United Arab Emirates etc.

The main species of oyster in the Persian Gulf producing these pearls are Pinctada radiata (Gulf pearl oyster), and to a lesser extent around the species Pinctada margaritifera (Black-lip pearl oyster). However the Basra Pearl supply has dwindled greatly ever since the oil industry boom in the Arab countries.

The Basra pearls are a highly valued and treasured species. These pearls have a featured in recorded history as far back in time as 300 BC. The Basra pearls available nowadays are far and few in between. Most are characterised by irregular shape and a yellowish tint. Some have a distinctly pinkish tint too. Since most reaching the markets are from old family treasures, they are drilled pearls that have been disengaged from a strand.

Natural Basra pearls, especially undrilled ones with silvery –white color and round /spherical shape are rare and extremely precious. In Vedic astrology, there is great power attributed to the Natural pearl. And there are old timers who swear by the effects of the Basra pearl like no other,  and when it is a Basra in question, the shape of the pearl almost becoems inconsequential, so long as it is THAT NATURAL BASRA pearl. So powerful and effective is the basra pearl that legends speak that just to view a real Basra pearl is extremely good fortune. These wondrous rarities have the power to do miracles.

Certification of Basra Pearl

In July 2008, the a new state-of-the-art pearl and gem testing and grading laboratory was opened in the Kingdom of Bahrain – a nation that takes special intesrest in the development of natural pearl industry. This new lab is specialised in testing and grading natural pearls to ensure they are distinct from cultured ones.

Interestingly, Bahrain is the only country in the world, which bans importing or trading in cultured pearls. Prohibitive laws were passed follwing directives from the kingdom’s leadership.The new lab is also specialised in testing and grading gems, issuing world-standard certificates that are accredited regionally and internationally.

Trade bodies have been trying to weed out the ambiguities from the pearl trade too, so that nothing else can masqurade as Basra pearls in a market where unscrouplous ones are looking to make a kill because of lack of knowledge and organised, standardized norms.

Cohesive trade movement

In the recent developments, with regard to Pearl industry and Basra pearl in particular, CIBJO’s Pearl Commission discussed the terminology used to describe different types of pearls and agreed that amendments need to be defined to increase transparency in the industry and for the public.

For example, where place names are mentioned in connection with natural pearls, it was recommended that an article governing the use of such terminology be created.  For example, a “Basra Pearl” would refer specifically to a natural pearl from the Arabian Gulf.

CIBJO is the French acronym for the Confédération Internationale de la Bijouterie, Joaillerie, Orfèvrerie, des Diamants, Perles et Pierres, which translates as the International Confederation of Jewellery, Silverware, Diamonds, Pearls and Stones (normally shortened to the International Jewellery Confederation).

Founded in 1926 as BIBOAH, a European organisation whose mission was to represent and advance the interests of the jewellery trade in Europe, it was reorganised in 1961 and renamed CIBJO, in 2009 it was once again reorganized and officially named “CIBJO, The World Jewellery Confederation”.  Today CIBJO, which today has a global focus and efforts, is domiciled in Switzerland.

Epitome of Luxury

Featured below are two prized specimens of utter gandeur and luxury to give you an idea of how dear the Basra pearl was to the Royalty of yore!

The two pictures are from the treasures of the Maharaja of Baroda’s (the Gaekwad dynasty) kitty

One is a circular canopy, 1.2 meters in diameter that is studded with around 500,000 pearls. And not just any pearls, but fine Basra pearls, found naturally in the Persian Gulf. The canopy is embellished with sapphires, emeralds, rubies and diamonds too.

At a recent auction by Sotheby’s the canopy fetched a whopping 10.3 crores.

The other image is a Pearl carpet is said to be ten and one half feet long by six feet wide, and to be made up of strings of Basra pearls, except that a border, eleven inches wide, and also center ornaments, are worked out in diamonds. According to estimates over 2.2 million Basra pearls and beads have been used to decorate the field.

In the carpet which also has other gemstones, the total estimated weight of the pearls is 30,000 carats. The designs worked in the rosettes are set with approximately 2,500 table cut and occasional rose cut diamonds, approximately 350-400 carats in total, all set in silver topped gold or possibly blackened gold; the motifs are further enhanced with foil backed rubies, emeralds and sapphires set in gold!

Comments	For us at Gemstoneuniverse each single Gemstone Ring or pendant that we provide is alive, alive with Vedic Energy, Energy that has the power of change, change for the positive, change for betterment.  Every Single gem is so powerful and every single gem that we showcase gives us the opportunity of sharing with you knowledge and information not available easily. Knowledge that sets you apart from everybody else. Even though the term Jyotish Quality is not incredible complicated it is not easy also to fully understand the true ramifications of Jyotish Quality easily. It takes a decade to fully understand just the 4C’s of cut, color, and clarity and carat weight but to understand Jyotish Quality it takes longer. It requires patience, dedication, desire to excel, practice and above all humility. This Emerald ring gives us an opportunity to share some vital information with you regarding Jyotish Quality Emeralds. What exactly is a Jyotish Quality Emerald Essentially explained in Bulleted Points to avoid complications: -          The Emerald should be beautiful -          The color should be fine( more on this later) -          The clarity should be 85% and more that ensures a full play of light. -          Cut should be symmetrical adding to the beauty and lustre of the Emerald. -          AND it should be treatment free. That’s it. Is it that simple? NO. Every single bulleted point above carries several other permutations and combination and that is why Vedic Gem Therapy is an ocean and the vital information is available only to a selected few. The Shastras specify that even among all shades of emerald only 7 shades are most preferred. One of the shades of emeralds specified in the sacred texts is of the color of new born grass of the species Vallisneria Octandra. Vallisneria Octandra new born Grass one of the preferred shades of Emeralds as described in the sacred texts.jpg There are other 6 shades that also bring about the desired results. This particular Emerald featured above is of the color of Vallisneria Octandra. Just as the sacred texts specify preferred shades, the texts also specify undesirable shades that lead to problems and complications.   Another Example of Vallisneria Octandra new born Grass one of the preferred shades of Emeralds as described in the sacred texts Flaws to avoid In a Jyotish Quality Emerald? For Every Gemstone to be used for harnessing of Planetary energies for good fortune the sacred texts describe the flaws to be avoided. 8 primary flaws and 6 secondary flaws have been enlisted in the shastras that have to be avoided totally in emeralds. These Flaws bring about bad luck, problems and complications. One of the Flaws to be avoided is that the Emerald should not be a Bishfota. A Bishfota emerald is an emerald having a Yellow Spot. A Bishfota Emerald causes death from wounds, injury, accident or weapons. So even if the Emerald qualifies on the bulleted points listed above for a Jyotish Quality Emerald if it is a Bishfota or has any other flaw as listed in the Shastras it fails to be a Jyotish Quality Gem. It will bring problems and complications. Note: At Gemstoneuniverse we move with a passion and service towards planetary gem therapy and the singular vision and mission that no flaw creeps into the Gem Therapy. Every single staff member is a GIA certified Gemologist plus an expert in examination of the Gemstones as per the sacred texts. Every Single Gemstone that makes it to the Gemstoneuniverse inventory is a True Jyotish Gem that delivers true results. Free from any flaws as listed in the sacred texts. Featured above is an alluring Jyotish emerald set in a Mercury Talisman ring. Lovely New Born Grass Green Color having the shade of Vallisneria Octandra devoid of any flaws as listed in the sacred texts. View the equal distribution of color that makes the gem look gorgeous. Add to that the element of exceptional clarity, the distinctness of the origin and lack of any makeup read enhancing treatment and you have a Jyotish Gem a Gem capable of creating remarkable turnarounds.

Rubies – Soon to be Stuff of Legends

The Gemstoneuniverse Advantage

And why gemstones will give you the best bang for your buck

The Insider Scoop on Natural Ruby Situation

Unheated Ruby Lot from Mozambique. Helios 2011. Royal and Resplendent Like the Sun

New Lot Helios

The most preferred mode of investment for the super rich across the world is gems. The advantage with gemstones is not just their value and their amazing ability to condense a few million dollars into a few millimetres of space, but the fact that since nature will take another million years to produce such rare and precious lovelies, their price will only be North-bound!

While stocks and bullion may not play along forever bringing you increasing fortunes, gemstones are an assured bet! Case in point is the price of the gemstones. Now this talk is not just some information gleaned from the retail trade that is tremendously disorganised and does not have a standard to adhere to, but from the environs of the hub of gem trade where B2B exchanges determine which way is the trade headed.

Of course, paucity of good knowledge and inability to identify goods of great quality as well as origins is a factor that keeps ignorance and malpractices rife in the general retail gem trade, especially in certain Asian nations.

But then what is Gemstoneuniverse there for – Not only do we bring you best of gemstones, but our endeavour is also to debunk random notions/ rumours to bring the best of the information about gems to you as well.

To get the picture better, just consider the new lot of unheated, untreated, jyotish grade rubies acquired by Gemstone Universe recently. Aren’t they really gorgeous and alive with the fire within?

Well, some time ago Gemstoneuniverse posted two stories, reporting about the sheer unavailability of good, natural, unheated, untreated rubies even at the Gem trade show BGJF, held bi annually at Bangkok.

Ruby Situation Report from the 46^th Bangkok Show can be accessed here

Ruby Situation report from the 47^th Bangkok Show can be accessed here.

The situation is only getting drier… if you can put it that way, for no matter how much you forage, the goods you are looking for seem to have disappeared altogether from the markets. What ever is up for grabs is at a price point that is prohibitive for the common man! Good Burma Ruby is now beyond reach and Mozambique Ruby prices have gone up by 40% from February 2011 to September 2011. In less than 7 months there has been an increase of 40% just due to the sheer rarity of unheated fine quality Ruby.

Here we would like to address one common thought that runs in the minds of some consumers- At price does a Gemstone cost to Gemstoneuniverse?. There is a full dedicated article to colored Gemstone Pricing but here what we would like to point out that once a Gemstone is listed on Gemstoneuniverse its price never gets changed. So if you buy Rubies that were listed 5 or 6 months back you already have a return on your investment.

Have a look at some of the unheated Rubies offered by a reputable Vendor at the Bangkok Show

The reality of Natural Ruby Pricing. Insider Information. B2B Pricing as of Sep 2011

This image speaks by itself what multiple lengthy expositions by any of us wouldn’t suffice. Rubies with good levels of clarity and are not available even in B2B deals at a good price. The price per carat starts at USD 2000/- roughly translating to INR 1 Lac! There is no limit to where it can go upward depending on how good the color, size, rarity and clarity are. So if a B2B buyer gets this price, can you imagine the price of genuine unheated, untreated natural rubies in the retail market!

The Vendor refuses to sell or negotiate for these goods because he is well aware of the market situation. He is comfortable in holding back these goods because he knows that in another couple of months the prices will still go up.

Now, these goods are fine, they are natural, they are unheated but are these Jyotish Quality? The answer is a resounding No. The clarity level in these goods ranges from 60%-70% and the color is also not anything special but still these goods are commanding the above B2B Price.

Really. You need to wake up and smell the beans.

You have an option with us. Please have a re-look at the prices at which Gemstoneuniverse is still making good ruby available to you. It is not for nothing that we are known for providing amazing quality goods at great prices. Don’t be amazed and don’t look for riders – we own precious roughs of good gemstones, so despite the market conditions, we still are able to get you great rubies, whether they are from Mozambique or Madagascar or in rare cases from Burma – at a good price. Of course, Burmese stones already legendary are soon going to acquire the ‘no longer available’ status.

Buy while you can. Rubies are an investment that will be worth your while for begetting fortune and worth your money too.

To delight our Gemstoneuniverse Patrons we present our new lot, the pride of 2011, the catch of 2011- The Lot Helios.

Salient Features of this Lot

-          Super fine color. One look and you are in love.

-          Fully Natural, unheated, earth mined enhancement free rubies from Mozambique.

-          Gorgeous clarity levels of 85%-95% or more. Combine color and clarity and here you have a Sattvik Vedic Gem- a Jyotish Quality Gem that creates peace, prosperity, abundance and real tangible results.

-          Price-At Gemstoneuniverse we hate to harp on this. You can easily compare prices on the internet by looking at product quality, specifications and if you have access to insider information as provided above, We shall offer these wonders to Gemstoneuniverse patrons that beats B2B price.

-          These Rubies are Vedic Wonders, absolutely top notch Jyotish quality.

-          Certification& Appraisal of this lot is complete and these should be online in the next 14 business days.

-          Fully Royal and Resplendent just like their planetary Lord-Sun the Divine Surya.

Ruby represents the positive powers of the Sun God-Surya

We would also like to address two questions that came up recently by mails:

Q1)  Whether a 90% clear Rubellite would be more effective for Sun in Vedic Gem Therapy than a 80% clear  unheated ruby.

-          Well the answer to  that is 100 tonnes of 100% clear Rubellite would not match up to the power of ½ carat Ruby provided it is Natural, Unheated, Full of life and color and is 80% clear or above.

Q2) This one is rather ironical given the fact that this mail sender says he admires our work and goes on to say that he has purchased a 6 carat Ruby ring set in Panchdhatu( Mix of 5 metals) and he is already wearing a Red Coral Ring. Can he wear 2 Red color Stones in one ring. His expert Jyotisha( Astrologer) has asked him to do so?

Here is your answer in 3 simple sentences:

-          If you really have a 6 carat ruby which is Jyotish quality and natural, you can buy the whole listed inventory of Gemstoneuniverse Ruby section with that kind of funds. Please read the market report above

-          In such a case you don’t need the Astrologer; he needs you, in fact you will be one of the most sought after individuals in the whole word if the descriptions in the sacred texts are accurate because to own such a Gem you will be a chosen one by Sun God himself. Do read about Lord Krishna and the Syamantaka Ruby

-          Unless and until your horoscope truly indicates use of such a combination, and unless and until your expert is really knowledgeable about Gemstones and their effect on Chakras and the endocrine system please do not be a party to such a dangerous experiment. You can get fried. Just try to stand under a hot summer Sun for 10 minutes and feel the heat. If that is a real Ruby that you are wearing that impact would be 1000 times greater.
