Unworn Gold Ring with Dark Green Tourmaline & Diamonds From Our Workshop

Some time ago, we had a surprise visit. The two grandchildren of a gemstone dealer from Stockholm had moved to Berlin and brought a little treasure with them. They had found a small box in their grandfather's estate that had been lying unnoticed in the attic for decades. It was filled with sparkling gemstones in a wide variety of colors, tourmalines and beryls, already polished. Gustav Caesar had acquired the gemstones in May 1956, as the handwritten list in the box revealed. Around 170 carats of wonderful gemstones in all colors of the rainbow had been waiting for around 65 years to finally shine in the light of the sun! We didn't hesitate for long and took over the collection. But how should we present the gemstones appropriately? Our goldsmiths designed a ring that is entirely focused on the presentation of the gemstones. A narrow ring band made of high-carat yellow gold wraps discreetly around the finger. In its center, the oval faceted gemstone is held securely by four times two prongs. It is accompanied on the right and left by three brilliant-cut white diamonds as sparkling points of light. The high-carat gold is historical material that we have recycled ourselves for reasons of sustainability and the diamonds are also historical stones that already have a history of their own, as they come from pieces of jewelry that have become unfashionable and have been melted down. This ring is set with a dark green, natural tourmaline, a so-called "verdelite". These rare gemstones have only been known in Europe since the beginning of the 18th century, when Dutch merchants brought them back from East Asia for the first time. We like this ring because it is straightforward and allows the beautiful gemstone from former Swedish ownership to take pride of place. It can also be combined wonderfully.
