Joden Girl
Baubles, Bling and Statement Things
Many stores offer a “wishlist”… a line-up of products that you love but aren’t quite ready to purchase yet. It’s a great tool for big retailers like Amazon and Target – stores that sell products that are mass produced. Even some jewelry stores have a wishlist program, tagging must-haves like stud earrings, tennis bracelets and statement rings. At Joden, nearly all of our pieces are one-of-a-kind, a fact that makes wishlists challenging. Because we specialize in antique and estate jewelry, we rarely have two of the exact same thing. That being said, we do have hundreds of wish-worthy jewels like these two bold rings.
If you want to make a statement – look no further. Both of these rings speak volumes about personal style and design aesthetic. Measuring an expansive 18.7mm wide, the all diamond band is made entirely of 18-karat yellow gold. A close-up study shows a unique pattern of channel setting that resembles a hedge maze. Five horizontal rows intersect with five right angles in geometric glory! Set within the gold channels are fifty-eight princess cut diamonds. These diamonds have a combined weight of 5.82 carats. Bright white, these sparklers have an average color grade of E-F and an average clarity grade of VS. The ring tapers slightly, from 18.7mm to 12mm at the back. This allows for a more comfortable fit. Measuring a finger size 7.5, this ring cannot be sized. It is priced at $6,500.00.
The second ring is a bit narrower, but still makes quite an impression. Also made from 18-karat yellow gold, this band consists of five rows of channel set gemstones. The two outside rows are set with a series of princess cut diamonds with each row containing ten square diamonds. Combined, these diamonds offer 2.00 carats of scintillating sparkle. Near colorless, these diamonds have an average clarity grade of VS. Nestled between the diamonds are three horizontal rows of square-cut rubies. These natural gemstones appear to be pigeon blood in color, a hue that is recognized as the finest color of ruby. There are twelve gems in each row for a total of thirty-six rubies with a combined weight of 4.50 carats. Measuring 16mm at the top, this band tapers to just shy of 10mm at the back. It measures at a finger size 9.5 and cannot be sized. Priced at $5,000.00, this ring is true statement jewelry.
Either of these bands could be worn as a wedding ring, an anniversary band or a right hand ring. I love a wide band on an index or middle finger! No matter how you wear them, these eye-catching beauties are sure to get some tongues wagging! Add one to your personal wishlist today… they’re available in our showroom.
