№ 246Z
355 Admirers
A well balanced 18ct gold ring that has been claw set with a green garnet that has an approximate weight of just under one carat. On either side is a brilliant cut diamond. The proper name for green garnet is “demantoid” garnet. 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. They are a celebrated stone and items of jewellery such as this beautiful ring have been set with these stunning stones.
