Canada’s gemstone takes on a contemporary personality with our incredible Today’s Showstopper, the Sterling Silver Faceted Ammolite & White Sapphire Pendant. For our first Ammolite Gems show of the year, we’re featuring a variety of new and exciting items. Tune in and bask in the beauty of Ammolite.

Ammolite is a recently discovered gemstone, unique to Canada! This vibrant, colourful gemstone looks beautiful set in rich, precious metals. It is extremely limited and with only one area for mining, Ammolite truly is one of nature’s rarest gems.

Our Price: $$279.99

Today’s Showstopper Price: $199.96

This eye-catching pendant creates a DESIGNER LOOK at an AFFORDABLE PRICE! The large ammolite stone creates a BOLD, CONTEMPORARY and SOPHISTICATED aesthetic. Large sizes of Ammolite are difficult to come by.

Ammolite is Canada’s own gemstone, mined only in Alberta and is one of nature’s rarest gems. Due to the raw nature of Ammolite, it is getting rarer every year.

You asked and we listened! This pendant has a “hat” of white sapphires above the ammolite. Several of our recent Today’s Showstoppers have featured white sapphire accents and they’ve been well received by our customers

This VERSATILE pendant features a wide bail so it can be worn on an omega necklace, a silk cord, a larger chain…

The Shopping Channel has the largest selection of Ammolite in the world.

There was a Facebook request for an easy stew recipe. My best friend gave

In a large soup pot, cook the pancetta or bacon over medium heat until cooked but not crisp, about 5 minutes. Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the potatoes and chicken broth and simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.
