Here we have an gorgeous untreated earth mined natural translucent jadeite jade and sparkly natural white diamond engagement or dress ring crafted in solid 18K white gold.
The large translucent vivid emerald green jadeite cabochon is set lengthways making a huge splash down the finger. This rare precious stone is surrounded by a geometric border or exceptional white natural diamonds. The diamonds are arranged and chosen for maximum sparkle with tapered caliber cut baguettes, baguettes and round brilliant cuts set symmetrically to draw the eye to the exceptional jade.
The beautiful jadeite jade in this handmade vintage ring is untreated. Apart from normal cutting and polishing it is as mined. These days most jade seen in modern rings has been acid treated, soaked in plastic resin and dyed. Untreated jade is immensely more valuable than modern treated jade.
Inside the shank it is marked 18K for 18 karat white gold, this confirmed by testing. The ring weighs 7.97 grams approximately.
It is a 6 3/4 US and is sizable within a wide range.
The jade and diamond cluster measures 1" long by 5/8" wide and rises 7/16" high off the finger (25.0mm x 15.5mm x 10.3mm).
What just takes my breath away about this ring is the intense color and translucency of the jade cabochon. It is rare to see this fine gem quality even in a smaller stone and here your breath is simply taken away by the intense green...the high polish and the size of this precious rare gem! It measures 19.10mm long by 8.05mm wide by 2.62mm thick approximately weighing an 4 carats as estimated in the setting.
