Antique Style Aquamarine Ring 1.43 Ct., 18K Yellow Gold

Across centuries aquamarine has been treasured as the stone of the sea, carried by Roman sailors for safe passage and prized by Renaissance collectors for its crystalline, calming hue. This ring celebrates that long lineage with a pristine, transparent 1.43 carat emerald cut aquamarine, measuring 9.03 by 6.24 by 3.71 millimeters, sourced from the rich deposits of Tanzania. Unenhanced and naturally clear, its very slightly included clarity grade when evaluated at eye level and its medium color saturation speak to an honesty of origin and a depth of color that matures rather than fades. The emerald cut, with its linear facets and elegant step-cut geometry, is a design steeped in classical taste, used for generations to reveal a gem’s internal harmony and to reflect light with a calm, architectural grace. An excellent polish on this stone ensures each facet catches the eye with refined precision, allowing the aquamarine’s soft blue to sit like a cool, luminous window set within a timeless frame.

Balancing this central jewel, carefully selected white round natural diamonds accent the setting and band, adding the kind of luminous contrast that elevates an heirloom. The composition includes white round diamonds totaling approximately 0.50 carats with clarity grades of VS1 and VS2 and a color grade of F, together with additional white round diamonds of approximately 0.09 carats, 0.05 carats, and 0.05 carats, each bearing VS clarity and F to G color grading. Set into a warm 14K yellow gold mounting, the diamonds flank and trail along the shoulders, their crisp brilliance echoing the aquamarine’s clarity while the gold provides a classic, historical warmth that has been favored by jewelry artisans for centuries. At The Natural Gemstone Company we honor the traditions of gemstone selection and fine metalwork, pairing provenance and natural condition to create pieces meant to be worn now and handed down. This ring is more than an adornment, it is a bridge between past and present, a testament to enduring craftsmanship and the quiet, reassuring beauty of nature preserved in an objet d’art.
