Modernist Natural Turquoise and Diamond Ring, Unisex appeal a one of a kind gold ring from the mid century period!

A fantastic hand crafted one of a kind mid century modernist fine untreated natural turquoise earth mined white diamond and solid 14K yellow gold ring.

Today we rarely see this quality and sadly most "handmade" rings are cast then polished but not handmade at all and were manufactured using CAD computer imaging design software with molds printed and cast. Stones can even be cast in place and not even set by hand! That means the stones are likely to be lost and the claws are brittle and uneven. These CAD rings do not have the quality of handmade gold rings and are unlikely to be able to be passed onto future generations but rather will be scrapped because of the porosity of the metal and other factors of casting using this cheap technology. This handmade ring is quality and will stand the test of time. It is an heirloom jewel like no other.

This hand made ring is a one of a kind piece which dates to the 1970s. The design is completely hand crafted which is so rare to see today. The setting which holds the beautiful turquoise freeform cabochon reminds me of rocks next to the seaside. It is just perfect to compliment the chosen turquoise which does have some variation to the blue and some slight matrix inclusions.

There are 15 points of H SI round brilliant cut claw set diamonds in the ring comprised of 2 6 point diamonds and 4 one pointers. The turquoise cab itself measures approximately 15.6mm by 13.4mm by 4.7mm and weighs an estimated 7.5 carats which is a very nice sized stone. The color is vivid and beautiful and is captured quite well in the photographs.

This makes the total gem weight in this fine 1970s modernist ring 7.66 carats.

In total this ring weighs 7.2 grams. It is a very comfortable ring to wear as it is beautifully balanced so it sits well on the hand.

The face of the ring itself measures 13/16" wide by 11/16" long down the hand and it sits 1/4" high off the finger (20mm x 18mm x 6mm).

Currently it is a size 7 1/4 US sizing. It is sizable.

This gold turquoise ring is in lovely condition and is ready to gift or to wear.

The photos form part of the description. Like all colored stones there is a color variation that occurs in different lighting conditions both inside but also outside, even the time of day can make the color of a stone appear a little different. We do our best to show colors as we see them. Color perception is highly individual and some people can perceive more colors than others, also colors can appear somewhat different on different screens and devices due to variations in screen hardware and device display settings.
