Here is a handmade ring in style # 6 of our online design selection catalog. This design utilizes a channel to hold the gems in an arched line while protecting them as well. The light enters the gems from the open back and also through the other gems as there is no metal between them. The gems fill the entire groove on the face. A series of notches flank each side for ornamentation. The band tapers from the gems to the back in a straight slope and is built heavy.
These five gems are natural and untreated Sapphire 4 mm round faceted gemstones from Ceylon. They are eye clean, well cut and weigh a total of about 1.50 carat together.
The entire weight of this well built ring is about 4 grams.
This hand crafted ring is a size 10½ in the USA, inside diameter of 0.794 inches or 20.17mm, the inside circumference is 2.49 inches or 63.4mm, in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand it is a size U½, in India, China and Japan it is a size 22, and in Switzerland it is a size 22.75.
Re-sizing one of our rings can often be done quite easily by hammering and re-polishing when only increasing by a size or so and there will be no noticeable delay in the shipping time. When we need to have the size decreased at all or increased by more than about one size then I have to ask you to be patient as it will need to re-enter the queue and will be ready for shipping in about 14 days. Right after you make the purchase be sure to message us about the new size before we have a chance to ship.
Being gemologist in Thailand makes providing you with the right gemstones a snap. Furthermore, the gem markets here are nothing short of amazing! We shop in four different gem districts across the country and the variety is world class. Additionally, a precision gem cutter is working for our operation. Of course, we also source fine gemstone rough with our worldwide network of contacts in the mining business.
Since we love to travel and shop for gemstones, we do act as a buyer’s guide to the gem markets for any visitor that would like assistance. Often we can meet you at a gem market or even pick you up at the airport to get our adventure started.
An essential part of our service is custom gemstone cutting. You may buy rough stones from our site or mail rough to us to be precision faceted or cabbed into the shapes that you desire. In addition, many gemstones that are already native cut will be improved in clarity and light return by a new precision cut. Custom orders on gemstone cutting are normally ready in just two weeks.
