Edwardian 15ct Gold Bangle set with Green Garnets & Diamonds

728Y
Rare Find
Written by Olly Gerrish

A fine quality 15ct gold bangle that was made circa 1900-1910. It has been set with a graduated line of green garnets or demantoid garnets as they are known. On either side are graduated old mine cut diamonds. Although garnets have been known since ancient times, the demantoid variety was not discovered until 1868 in Russia’s western central Ural Mountains. Miners were immediately stunned by the highly refractive nature of the gem material. They began comparing it to diamond and referred to it as “demantoid”, from the French “demant” meaning diamond. The reason is obvious, with its high brilliance and dispersion. These bright apple green stones are comparatively rare and very expensive as they are no longer mined. In the early 1900s they were a celebrated stone and many items of jewellery were set with these beautiful stones.

This bangle is a lovely example.
