 Ametrine
P.S. If you want to see what Bolivianite looks
like, you can google Ametrine, or you can check out
www.anahi.com. Anahi is the name of an Ayore
princess who, according to legend at least, married
a Spaniard. When he decided to return to Spain
with his new bride, the tribe--which had welcomed
their marriage--was upset at his taking her away.
The chief of the tribe had given Bolivianite
crystals to the Spaniard as a wedding gift, but he
didn't pay much attention. But as the tribe
pursued him to kill him, his bride put a crystal
into his hand and sent him away. Allegedly, the
man got away, and the tribe killed the princess
instead. The Spaniard didn't open his hand and see
the gem till after he was gone. . . and realized
what a beautiful thing it was--two blended stones
that were inseparable without destroying them. . .
representing the love of Anahi for her husband and
the love of Anahi for her people. If you go to
www.anahi.com, there are two sides to the website,
Bolivia and USA, with some different jewelry on
each side. If you pick the Bolivia website, you can
still
choose English language. But they have different
designs for the different countries.
