Description from the seller

Ring with neon blue apatite / cabochon / new

Set in 925 sterling silver

Total weight: 7.90 g / 39.5 ct

Inner diameter: 19.4 mm


The name is derived from the Greek 'apatein', which means to deceive. In Greek mythology, Apate, the goddess of deception, fraud, and trickery, was one of the evil spirits released from Pandora's box. One of the reasons for this naming is certainly the numerous colors in which apatite occurs. It was often simply mistaken for another gemstone in the past; for example, a royal blue or dark blue apatite closely resembles a blue sapphire. There were also confusions with tourmalines, peridots, and beryls. However, this gemstone historically lived more in the shadows within the jewelry and gemstone world.
