To find out more about the gemstones in this ring:
Provenance
Made during the 1980s, this vintage solitaire ring is set with a chrysoberyl of exceptional quality. It has the most wonderful shade of green which changes as the stone is turned - a display of pleochroism, for which chrysoberyls are so highly prized! The clarity is incredible and, overall, the calibre of this gemstone is unmatched.
Oval-cut and claw-set in a raised open-back setting. The gallery is intricately pierced with windowing that allows light to flood into the back of the stone and light it up from within. The shoulders are lightly open and slope to a solid gold shank.
