In any case, since it is very likely that you do not know what Whitby jet is, it is better to explain it: it is a black fossil material, similar to lignite, which was formed in 180 million years. It is very soft to work and is also used to make jewelry. In particular, it is associated with the mourning jewelry of the Victorian era. The fashion of wearing these jewels, in fact, was started by Queen Victoria, after the death of her husband, Prince Albert.<br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_136814\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-136814\" style=\"width: 709px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Smokey-quartz-citrine-champagne-diamonds-and-18CT-gold-.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Smokey-quartz-citrine-champagne-diamonds-and-18CT-gold-.jpg\" alt=\"Anello in quarzo fum\u00e9, citrino, diamanti champagne\" width=\"709\" height=\"633\" class=\"size-full wp-image-136814\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Smokey-quartz-citrine-champagne-diamonds-and-18CT-gold-.jpg 709w, https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Smokey-quartz-citrine-champagne-diamonds-and-18CT-gold--300x268.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Smokey-quartz-citrine-champagne-diamonds-and-18CT-gold--480x429.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 100vw, 709px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-136814\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Smoky quartz, citrine, champagne diamond ring<\/figcaption><\/figure><br \/>\nJacqueline Cullen has chosen the Whitby jet, trying to enhance the material, carved hand. The fossil material is then combined with gold and diamonds, blacks of course, with some concessions to the hue champagne in rare cases. The result has a certain charm and, in any case, is distinguished from the rest of the common jewelry. But the designer doesn&#8217;t just use the Whitby jet. She also loves composing her jewels with Botswana agate together with champagne diamonds, or with stones such as spectrolite or black jade.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_136817\"
