The listing, Shards of the Mirror of Galadriel (Lake County Diamonds) has ended.
“Lake County Diamonds,” also called “Moon Tears,” are semi-precious stones of volcanic origin found nowhere else in the world. While not equal in hardness to real diamonds [rated 7.5 to 8 compared to a diamond’s 10 rating], Lake County diamonds have been used commercially and are capable of cutting glass.
They are highly prized by collectors and can be faceted and polished to make beautiful jewelry, nearly as brilliant as real diamonds.
According to one local tribe’s legend, a Pomo Indian chieftain and the moon fell in love. The moon could not stay with the chieftain because she was needed by the people to light the night sky and mark the seasons. She was so sad to leave the chieftain that she wept “Moon Tears.”
This lot of 5 Lake County Diamonds comes enclosed in a beautiful mesh/lace drawstring bag. Inspired by the Elven queen, Galadriel, of J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of The Rings, this collection is one of beauty and elegance.
