After being introduced to Ammolite, the rare and beautiful feng shui gemstone, at Jewelers of America’s Holiday Press Preview, we’ve  been curious to know more about it’s origins. Given official gemstone status in 1981, opalescent Ammolite comes from the mineralized shell found on the surface of ammonite fossils that are over 70 million years old! According to geology.com, the best stones 1) produce a vivid display of multiple colors, 2) have a strong iridescence that can be observed from a wide range of angles, and, 3) have a pleasing pattern of color with minimal interruption by gaps, inclusions or fractures. The only area in the world known to produce gemstone quality of this iridescent treasure is Alberta, Canada, making Ammolite an extremely rare gemstone. It is mined by KORITE, the top supplier of Ammolite, which is sometimes called Korite Ammolite.  Bonus: they mine the stones ethically and responsibly! Aside from being a geological wonder and an eye-catching stunner, this stone is said to hold some highly desirable Feng shui properties, including health, wealth and wisdom. Whether you choose a piece of Korite Ammolite to brighten up your jewelry collection or to channel its positive cosmic energy, here are some of our favorite pieces. –Stephanie Melia
