As we are both Gemmologists we lean toward beautiful minerals and crystals and great examples of rare minerals in their crystal forms. We are constantly amazed by the mineral wonders that mother nature produces and love to share our finds with other collectors and rock lovers.","image":{"created_at":"2013-09-18T10:05:47+10:00","alt":null,"width":1695,"height":1695,"src":"\/\/rareandbeautiful.com.au\/cdn\/shop\/collections\/IMGP6628.jpg?v=1379462747"}},{"id":288535347265,"handle":"quick-order","title":"Quick Order","updated_at":"2025-07-16T14:50:51+10:00","body_html":null,"published_at":"2025-03-27T14:26:15+11:00","sort_order":"best-selling","template_suffix":"quick","disjunctive":false,"rules":[{"column":"variant_price","relation":"greater_than","condition":"0"}],"published_scope":"web"},{"id":262703644737,"handle":"sterling-silver","title":"Sterling Silver","updated_at":"2025-07-16T14:50:51+10:00","body_html":"We hand make quality sterling silver jewellery that includes rings, pendants, bracelets and necklaces.

We found this tiny seahorse washed up and dried out on the sand of Marion Bay on the East Coast of Tasmania. We then made a cast of this small sea creature and filled the cast with Sterling Silver so its memory can be treasured forever. Available in Solid Sterling Silver and 22k Gold plate over Sterling Silver.
