Aki Shigure / Autumn Shower Arranging gentle blue sapphires from Ceylon, we let them fall from clouds of white mother-of-pearl. The sapphires shimmer like waves, creating a truly beautiful piece of jewelry. "Shigure" refers to the intermittent rain that falls from the end of autumn to the beginning of winter. This rain forms when cold seasonal winds crossing the Sea of Japan gain moisture, become clouds, and fall as they cross the mountains of the Japanese archipelago. It is characterized by low precipitation and short duration. At the time of returning home, the outside is still wet, though the rain has stopped. You wouldn't have known it had rained. As a word that signifies the arrival of autumn, "Shigure," which is also an autumn season word, its beautiful sound evokes a sense of autumn. As a unique piece of jewelry depicting seasonal scenery, it is a carefully crafted piece for adult women who carry a story around their neckline.

Therefore, finely cut stones are very expensive. Sapphires are precious gemstones primarily produced in Asia. The name originates from the Latin word "sapphirus," meaning blue, and they are called "Jewel of the Heavens" or "Gem of the Sky" due to their resemblance to the various colors of the sky throughout the day. ※ The sapphires in this work are of very high transparency. Inclusions (internal cracks, black dots, etc.) may be visible in individual stones. 【Bonus Column: Sapphire is the Navel of the World】 Sapphire is a mineral species called corundum, composed of aluminum and oxygen. It exists in igneous and metamorphic rocks that do not contain silicon... Have you ever played by searching for transparent sand or small pebbles in your schoolyard as a child? That is silicon. Since silicon is abundant in the Earth's crust, environments lacking silicon are extremely rare, limited to metamorphic zones of ultra-high temperature and pressure. This occurred in the center of a supercontinent that existed about 700 to 500 million years ago, Gondwana. Gondwana was a supercontinent at that time, and in its center, a zone of ultra-high pressure metamorphism formed where most of the continents that exist today collided, creating the conditions for the formation of corundum (sapphire) with a Mohs hardness of 9. Africa, Mozambique, Sri Lanka, Madagascar, and the Indian subcontinent were all joined together, and in this rare central environment, metamorphic sapphires were formed (there are also volcanic sapphires). Rather than sapphires having various origins, the single location where sapphires formed later dispersed throughout the world. Sapphires are, in a sense, evidence of the former "Navel of the Earth." Collecting sapphires has a romance akin to collecting fragments of the Earth. Since the Earth's crustal energy has been decreasing for over 700 million years, events like the formation of the Gondwana supercontinent may be phenomena that occur only once in Earth's history. Within a single small, beautiful sapphire, the pulse of the Earth is hidden.
