Three Stone Aquamarine Ring 5.65 Ct., 18K Yellow Gold

From the moment this aquamarine began its slow journey beneath the earth in Madagascar, it carried with it a story written in crystal. Deep in mineral rich veins, nurtured by time, pressure, and water, a transparent gem formed with a cool, ocean like blue that recalls distant shores. Our cutters at The Natural Gemstone Company honored that origin by selecting a single, remarkable piece, a 5.65 carat emerald cut aquamarine, whose measured proportions of 10.92 x 8.95 x 8.43 mm allow the light to travel through its body with exceptional clarity. At eye level this gem reads as eye clean, a rare quality that lets every internal plane and every facet speak without interruption. The intense color saturation feels both pure and deep, the kind of blue that suggests the salt and sky of coastal Madagascar, yet remains refined enough to translate across generations. No heat treatment, no enhancement, only nature and skill brought this stone from its birthplace to the jeweler s bench, where an excellent polish completed the transformation and prepared the gem to be set into a design that respects its natural beauty.

The design itself keeps the aquamarine center stage, its emerald cut chosen to emphasize clarity, geometric grace, and an enduring classical silhouette. The rectangular facets create a hall of mirrors that reflects the gem s interior architecture, while the cut s step facets yield a calm, crystalline flash rather than a scatter of tiny sparks. Flanking the aquamarine are two white round natural diamonds, weighing approximately 0.20 carats in total, chosen for their balance to the center stone rather than their dominance. These diamonds are graded Very Slightly Included in clarity, VS1 and VS2, and they carry an E color grade, meaning they are exceptionally bright and near colorless, a quiet counterpoint that frames the blue without stealing warmth. The entire composition is set in 14K yellow gold, a metal selected for its ability to heighten the aquamarine s oceanic tones, and to add an element of warmth and wearable luxury. Every junction between gemstone and metal was planned to protect the stone, and to present it as a jewel that feels as solid in the hand as the place it came from.

Beyond the stones themselves lies a human chapter that begins in Madagascar and continues through the hands of cutters, polishers, and goldsmiths who brought this ring to life. Madagascar has long been a source of unique and characterful gems, and the story of this aquamarine ties the wearer to a place of remarkable biodiversity and geological history. To hold this ring is to hold, in miniature, an island s memory of sea spray and ancient rock. At The Natural Gemstone Company we seek gems that carry provenance and personality, stones with visible stories and unaltered chemistry. The fact that this aquamarine is untreated amplifies its authenticity, and allows the natural color and internal structure to remain unmasked by enhancement. Such an approach matters to collectors and to anyone who wishes to wear a piece of jewelry that is honest in its origin, honest in its presentation, and enduring in its appeal.

When you wear this ring you invite both calm and presence into your everyday. The aquamarine s serene blue moves easily from daytime confidence to evening refinement, while the pair of near colorless diamonds provides a subtle flash of light that lifts the center stone. The 14K yellow gold band offers classic wearability and a tone that flatters many skin tones, making the ring a versatile choice for an engagement, a milestone, or an heirloom to be passed down. Caring for this piece is simple, a gentle cleaning with warm water and mild soap restores the aquamarine s transparency, while periodic professional checkups ensure the diamonds remain secure. At The Natural Gemstone Company we include documentation of the gem s characteristics, and we are happy to speak with clients about custom fittings or complementary pieces. In choosing this ring you choose a gem with a traceable story, a natural, untreated aquamarine from Madagascar, set with responsibly selected diamonds, and brought together by craftsmanship that honors each material s origin.
