Description

A one off gorgeous hand made iconic mid century modernist circa 1970 fine platinum Colombian emerald and earth mined VS F diamond engagement or dress ring. This amazing ring has a one of a kind design which showcases the beautiful colors of top grade Colombian emeralds against the exceptional white of the finest quality diamonds that money can buy. There is a lovely contrast not only between the colors of these precious earth mined gems but also as the emeralds themselves are baguette cuts whilst each sparkling diamond is a tapered baguette. This dramatic use of the cuts of these gems results in a dynamic design which almost looks like an explosion of color and sparkle. It really is a breathtakingly dramatic piece. In total this hand made platinum ring weighs 7.5 grams. Inside the shank it is signed by the artist/ maker "MARK" and also marked for metal fineness "PLAT". It is in mint condition. I do not believe it has ever been worn but rather kept for best. The face of the ring measures 7/8" long by 11/16" wide by 1/2" tall (21.5mm x 17.5mm x 13.0mm). It is beautifully made and sits nicely balanced on the finger. It is a comfortable ring to wear. Currently it is a size 7 USA sizing. It can be resized to any size at all at quite little cost. The exceptional quality rare precious gems set in this ring are all end set and are as follows: * 11 tapered baguette cut diamonds VS F or better exceptional white with a total diamond weight of 1.305 carats as estimated in the setting The specific measurements of each diamond are as follows (length in mm, average width in mm, weight in points) depth is estimated 3.18, 1.55, 7.5 4.35, 1.59, 10 4.10, 1.75, 10.5 5.30, 1.17, 8 3.95, 2.05, 16 5.50, 1.60, 13 4.09, 1.60, 10 4.48, 1.27, 6 4.75, 2.06, 19 3.55, 1.95, 17 4.18, 1.79, 13.5 * 4 gorgeous perfectly matched vivid green earth mined Colombian emeralds with a total carat weight of 0.84 carats as estimated in the setting The specific measurements of each diamond are as follows (length in mm, average width in mm, weight in points) depth is estimated 6.50, 2.10, 20 6.30, 2.64, 24 5.43, 2.50, 19 5.58, 2.02, 21 This makes the total fine white diamond and vivid green emerald weight 2.145 carats. It's important to note as well here that in a setting no appraiser can assign a clarity grade of higher than VS F to diamonds in reality our appraiser is quite certain these are VVS or flawless diamonds and E or better in color. In person the emeralds are perfectly matched for color. They are a vivid green and astonishingly two of these are loupe clean which is very rare for emeralds of any size. The other two are absolutely eye clean. This ring is sexy and very bold. It is a perfect piece for a special cocktail party or even as a custom designer statement style ring for someone with flair and confidence. If I try to think of something to compare it to I keep coming back to the first superman movie in the 1980s where superman throws a crystal and it turns into an amazing sculptural cathedral like structure in the snow and ice of the north pole. It really does look quite space age and inspirational. An appraisal shall accompany this item. This appraisal has been made by a professional Gemologist and accredited Jewelry Appraiser who is a specialist in the field. This dazzling ring will be sent in a presentation box.
