Give them the world on a 24k gold-plated chain. Each opalite sphere is inlaid with six different hand-carved gemstones and can spin within its frame. Barrel-screw ring.
4"l. Set of 3.
Museum Provenance
Opalite is in our National Gem Collection.
Every Smithsonian purchase will arrive with a museum provenance card explaining how it is adapted from or inspired by an object or objects in our collection.
These are key rings, and that would be their primary use. They are, however, so pretty and I think they would make great gifts.

Given as gift, and everyone receiving them loved them. They were enamored with them, the accuracy of the planet and plan to use them as their daily key chain. Good job guys!

Comments about Gemstone Globe Key Ring Set:
They are absolutely unique! The idea of using semi-precious stone for oceans and continents make this a different and interesting simple gift to give. I was very pleased with the look of the globes, however, 2 of them were somewhat stiff and would not spin initially. They did loosen up after 'working' them a bit. This raised some concern as to whether they will be able to stand up to regular use. Since this is a new purchase, only time and use will tell.

Christmas stocking stuffers for three female relatives. All were tickled with them and passed them around for others to admire. Excellent and inexpensive for the purpose.

Comments about Gemstone Globe Key Ring Set:
My mother has always wanted one of those big gemstone globes. Since I can't afford one of those, I got her the keychain version. She loved it! It is the perfect miniaturized version. I have nothing negative to say. It made the perfect little gift for Mother's Day.

Comments about Gemstone Globe Key Ring Set:
These key chains are so beautifully made and make a wonderful gift that is not quite so personal. I gave them to three young men (boys)-aged 9, 11 and 16. Each one of them really liked the key chains-said they were really different and said they could use them. I was so pleased with my purchase!
