Baubles, Bling and the Latest Things
For a self-proclaimed sapphire lover, lately I have really been digging emeralds. Not typically a fan of green – I am inexplicably drawn to the bright verdant hue. It feels fresh and new. Green is the color of spring – symbolizing life, fertility, and renewal. It’s no surprise that Emerald is the birthstone for May… a month when flowers are beginning to bloom. It’s also the gift of choice for a 55th wedding anniversary.
We recently acquired this vintage ring. It’s classically beautiful, made in a traditional three-stone style. Created entirely of 18-karat yellow gold, this ring looks and feels rich. A half-bezel style setting encapsulates the pear mixed cut beryl center. This gem weighs approximately 1.30 carats. Featuring medium green tones, this stone is moderately included. Inclusion in emeralds are like clouds in the sky… they’re a natural part of the stone.
Flanking the center are a matched pair of marquise brilliant diamonds. Together, these two stones offer .40 carat of sparkle. They are near colorless with an average clarity grade of VS2-SI1. On the hand, the ring has a time-honored charm all its own. Stamped inside the shank of this beauty are a series of English hallmarks.
Priced at $4000, this dainty darling is available in our store now, and will be on our site later this week. Simple and sweet, it would be an excellent choice for a right-hand ring or a non-traditional engagement ring. Whether you wear it on your left hand or right, this eye-catching ring will garner accolades and compliments from everyone who sees it!
