A stunning one of a kind traditionally handmade unheated untreated natural and diamond 14K gold brooch, circa 1970, 0.92ctw, largest ruby 0.65ct
The ruby here is such a beautiful and intense color! This gem quality ruby is completely unheated and untreated - it is just as mother nature made it having been only faceted and polished! So rare to see unheated untreated rubies today!
0.71 carats total weight of unheated untreated natural rubies
0.21 carats total weight of unheated untreated natural diamonds
0.92 carats total ruby and diamond weight.
On the reverse a clear 14K stamp meaning solid 14 karat gold, this confirmed by testing. This brooch weighs 3.5 grams.
This unique mid century ruby brooch is completely handmade.
It measures approximately 1 1/8" wide by 13/16" long (29mm x 21mm).
The design is so iconic of mid century modernist jewelry. I love the boomerang motifs and the eye catching asymmetrical arrangement of shapes here.
In lovely vintage condition this beautiful unheated natural ruby brooch is ready to gift or to wear.
A Gem Report is included with your purchase.
It shall be sent in a presentation box ready for gifting and for safe keeping.
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.
