Fascinante - Vintage 14K Gold Natural Pear Cut Emerald & Diamond Cluster Ring. This exquisite ring is crafted from 14K yellow gold, hallmarked with 14K gold, tested and confirmed, and a makers mark. The ring features one natural pear cut faceted emerald, 12 natural round brilliant diamonds, classic styling, and quality craftsmanship. The gallery on this ring showcases an expertly claw-set vibrant green emerald, displaying greenish/blue hues. The precious emerald has a wonderful bright sparkling diamond channel set surround, which enhances the vibrant green emerald perfectly. The shoulders are shaped in a 'v' design, which leads down to a polished and smooth shank, which allows for a comfortable fit and easy sizing. The band is tapered, and dainty, yet solid and substantial. This vintage ring would make a unique engagement ring, gift, or addition to your vintage jewelry collection. 

Comments: Beautiful vibrant green color on the emerald. Stunning ring! 

Note: Appraisal included with the Ring. 

History: Emerald gemstones were mined in Egypt as early as 330 BC, but some estimate that the oldest emeralds are 2.97 billion years old. Cleopatra is perhaps the most famous historical figure to cherish emerald gemstones. She even claimed ownership of all emerald mines in Egypt during her reign.

The earliest diamonds were found in India in 4th century BC, although the youngest of these deposits were formed 900 million years ago. A majority of these early stones were transported along the network of trade routes that connected India and China, commonly known as the Silk Road.

Gold was generally used for a couple thousand years solely to create things such as jewelry and idols for worship. This was until around 1500 BC when the ancient empire of Egypt, which benefited greatly from its gold-bearing region, Nubia, made gold the first official medium of exchange for international trade.
