Vintage 1965 Natural Emerald Cocktail Ring in 18k Yellow Gold
Vintage 1965 Natural Emerald Cocktail Ring in 18k Yellow Gold
£2,950.00
Description
A magnificent vintage cocktail ring, centred upon an exceptionally substantial square-cut natural emerald measuring approximately 16mm × 16mm.
The emerald displays a rich, saturated forest-green colour, with the characteristic natural inclusions and internal jardin that make each emerald entirely individual. Its broad table and stepped border facets emphasise the stone’s remarkable scale, producing deep flashes of green as the ring moves.
Secured at each corner by a substantial claw setting, the emerald is elevated above a beautifully simple 18k yellow gold mount. The open gallery, gently tapering shoulders and understated band allow the extraordinary centre stone to remain the complete focus of the design.
The emerald has a depth of approximately 3–4mm and is calculated to weigh approximately 9.5ct. This weight has been estimated from its measurements while mounted and should therefore be regarded as approximate.
Fully British hallmarked for London, 1965, this fabulous ring captures the confident, architectural style of mid-century cocktail jewellery. Bold, uncomplicated and wonderfully dramatic on the hand.
