Edwardian 18ct Gold Three Stone Ring set with Green Garnets & Diamonds

652Y
331 Admirers Rare Find
Written by Olly Gerrish

A pretty 18ct gold ring that was made circa 1910-1920. It has been claw set with three well matched green garnets that have an approximate weight of 1.18 carats. Green garnets or Demantoid garnets as they are known, are wonderful stones that are a lovely apple green colour. 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. In between the green garnets are old four mine cut diamonds.

An amazing and rare ring.
