3.12 ct Colombian Emerald and 3.15 ct Diamond, 18 ct Yellow Gold Dress Ring - Antique Circa 1930

Description

This stunning, large and impressive emerald and diamond ring has been crafted in 18 ct yellow gold with an 18 ct white gold setting.

The pierced decorated, halo style cluster design is ornamented with a feature 3.12 ct oval mixed cut Columbian emerald* claw set in relief to the centre of the arrangement.

The large emerald is encircled by seventeen individually claw set Old European round cut diamonds.

The central cluster is set to the centre of a completely separate frame, ornamented with twenty collet set Old European round cut diamonds, alternating between larger and smaller sized stones.

The trifurcating ring shoulders have a scroll and leaf design, and amalgamate at a subtle cuff design, blending with the plain ring shank.

This impressive large antique dress ring has been independently tested using state of the art technology (Niton XL2 Analyzer) and verified as 18 ct gold.

The ring is supplied with an independent diamond grading report card*.

NOTE: * The Gemmological Certification Services (GCS) lab has verbally accredited the emerald originating in Columbia and verifies that the gemstone shows indications of minor clarity enhancement.

"Rather than regarding inclusions in coloured stones as harmful, in small sizes and numbers that do not in any way detract from their beauty, they should be regarded as adding to desirability, for they provide identifying characteristics."
