Olympian Winner
Aristotle had just taken on a new student, Alexander. The boy was only 13. His dad Phillip had explained why Alexander’s education was so important…Alexander would someday rule all of Greece. Today was Aristotle’s first day as the new teacher. He was settling into his new quarters. The vases in his room and the vases outside of his room on the patio were rimmed with this simple leaf pattern similar to the laurel wreath of an Olympian winner.
Aristotle could see the power of consistency, the strength of symbol, the repetition of intent. Aristotle could feel that his teaching this child could move the needle of history. This morning he was to meet his new student.
Our Olympian Winner ring is one of our most powerful designs. The pattern steps directly from the winner’s circle of ancient Greece. The pattern is bequeathed by the gods of Mount Olympus. The symbol today is bestowed upon a lady of contemporary times with a gem of color, echoing the secrets of life on earth and the magic of gem creation deep within the earth.
Each of our Olympian Winner rings is unique. Each gem tells its own story of creation. Each gem foretells a great future, yet to be revealed.
What Does the Olympic Wreath Represent?
Victory!
Why a Cross Sapphire is the Best
We love blue. We know blue. We live by the blue sea, beneath summer blue skies. Our business is located on a peninsula called Portland, surrounded by saltwater on three sides. We can feel the blue ocean pulsing with every tide. From the rooftop of our building, we can see the open sea. Binoculars show ships coming and going on a blue, blue sea.
We love blue sapphire: It is bright, brilliant and is amazingly durable. As the second hardest gem to diamond, it is a highly wearable gem, ideal for rings. We love blue sapphire… we love it so much that we have traveled to southeast Asia to find first-choice colors. We choose a lighter, brighter blue than most American jewelers because it shows up best under a wide range of real-world lighting conditions. Our blue sapphires look and perform best on everything from sunny days to a candlelit dinner for two.
We want your blue sapphire to dazzle you, dazzle your partner and everyone in any room you visit. Cross’ blue sapphires are the best.
