  • Austrian-Vintage-Emerald-Diamond-Cluster-Ring-14ct-White-Gold

    Austrian Emerald and Diamond Cluster Ring, 14ct White Gold

    The central stone in this ring is a very unusual shade for an emerald. It presents rich teal undertones, that flatter both the white gold setting and accenting diamonds. The diamonds that encircle the emerald amount to an estimated total weight of 0.50ct, and are set to hug the emerald, complementing its unique spectrum of colour. Circa 1960, this vintage ring would make a wonderful choice for an engagement. The white gold setting, popular at the time is sleek and provides a pristine backdrop for both the VS2 diamonds and oval-cut emerald.  Please view the technical details below.

  • Emerald-Diamond-Navette-Ring-Art-Deco-Vintage-18ct-Yellow-Gold

    An Impressive Emerald and Diamond Navette Ring, 18ct Yellow Gold

    Emeralds are commonly included stones, with fissures, feathers, crystals and fluid-filled inclusions. This emerald however balances its classic, rich green colour with excellent clarity and purity, its colour heightened by yellow gold settings against a silvered mount set with circular-cut diamonds. Rings in this distinctive design are known as ‘navette’ rings – literally meaning ‘little boat’, from the shape of their settings. Popular from the 18th century onwards, they were prized for their elongating effect on the hand of the wearer. This navette ring is an unusually late example of this classic design, dated to 1927, and is made in a traditional way, but using the newly-discovered and refined platinum for the front for extra durability, ensuring it does not tarnish. A truly elegant design, with a breathtaking centre stone.   Please view the technical details below. If you have any questions, or to book an appointment to view this ring, please contact us using the following options.   Place Of Origin:England Date & Design Period:Circa 1920  | Early 20th Century Metal Composition:18ct yellow gold, platinum/silver.

  • Antique-Victorian-18-Carat-Emerald-Diamond-Ring-Pavé-Set-Boutique-Jewellery

    Antique | Victorian, 18ct Gold, Emerald and Diamond Ring

    This uniquely shaped ring is a very interesting take on the traditional three-stone engagement ring. It features a large table in which the trio of stones are set and its overall brilliance is heightened by the paving of diamonds that lend their sparkle to the central trio. They layout of the stones is also atypical, and ventures away from the classic allotment that features a central gemstone that is accentuated by diamonds. With this piece, the central diamond is accented with two emeralds that originate from Columbia. They emit a vibrant leafy hue, that generously complements the sleek white diamond. The jeweller clearly thought outside of the box, and so this ring would be perfect for someone who enjoys jewellery that strays from the status quo. Please view the technical details below.

    Emerald and diamond ring, circa 1920.

A beautiful early 20th century design, fully in the thrall of Art Deco - every bit as stylish then as it is now, what an incredible Art Deco ring! Please view the technical details below.

  • Georgian-18-Carat-Gold-Silver-Emerald-Diamond-Ring-Antique

    Georgian, 18ct Gold, Silver, Emerald and Diamond Ring

    The settings of the diamonds in this antique ring are indicative of an early 19th century date, when jewels were mounted in silver on gold, and stones were set in large collets which were then pinched together and cut down to fit the edges of the stone to hold it in place. The patination of the silver offsets the diamonds in this ring beautifully, which surround a step-cut emerald in a beautiful, summery shade of bright bluish-green. A beautiful and very wearable example of this historic style. Please view the technical details below.

  • Antique-Emerald-Diamond-Art-Nouveau-Jewellery-Ring

    Art Nouveau, 18ct Gold, Emerald and Diamond Ring

     The elongated shape of this ring has its origins in the 18th century boat-shaped ‘navette’ rings of the 18th century. This version, with its curving, leaf-like contours, is clearly informed by Art Nouveau, a turn-of-the-century movement characterised by aesthetically stylised naturalism, and sinuous, dramatic lines. The unusual cuts of the outer emeralds are a particularly rare feature. The outer emeralds are extraordinary as they slightly curve to fit the contours of the ring’s outline - a difficult and expensive feat for a lapidary to accomplish with any gemstone. To finish it off, a line of beautifully matched circular-cut diamonds down the centre, bordered by four marquise-shaped emeralds, paired like newly sprouted leaves, some smaller diamond accents and a delicate millegrain border. This is a miniature masterpiece, it is romantic and unique making it a wonderful choice for an antique engagement ring. Please view the technical details below.

About emeralds

What is an emerald?Alongside rubies and sapphires, emeralds complete the triumvirate of precious stones.

They are also some of the most historically treasured gemstones, and emerald mining is documented as far back as 1500 BCE, supposedly on mount Smaragdus in Egypt.

Emeralds are a variety of the mineral beryl (which also includes aquamarine, morganite and heliodor), and owe their extraordinary green to chromium impurities.

The most famous sources of emeralds are found in Colombia, with the Muzo and Chivor mines producing particularly important examples. Today, Colombia is still the world's main source of gem quality emeralds, but increasingly mines in Zambia and Pakistan are producing excellent examples.

Due to their chemistry and the way they are formed, emeralds are very rarely without inclusions, and enjoy an enviable position among precious stones in having their inclusions not only accepted, but celebrated.

These various combinations of inclusions, often known as an emerald's 'jardin', can reveal the minutiae of the emerald's formation in the earth and occasionally its precise geographical origin. Due to these inclusions, emeralds are often traditionally treated with oil, which absorbs into fissures within the stone and helps to keep the stone at its most transparent.

Emerald is the birthstone of the month of may, and is associated with the star sign cancer. At 7-8 on the Moh's scale of hardness, emeralds are quite hard, but can be brittle due to their structure, meaning that protective settings are important for everyday wear.
