Three Stone Aquamarine Ring 2.20 Ct., 14K Yellow Gold

The emerald cut aquamarine in this ring carries with it a lineage that reaches back through centuries of seafaring lore and classical adornment, a gem of quiet elegance that has been cherished by civilizations for its serene color and crystalline clarity. The emerald cut has long been favored by connoisseurs who prize clean lines and the way broad facets create a window into the heart of a stone, a style that speaks to restraint, refinement, and an appreciation for geometry that transcends fleeting trends. Wearing an aquamarine in this timeless cut is to connect with a history of artisans and patrons who valued gems not only for their beauty, but for their symbolic resonance. The pale greenish blue hue of this example evokes coastal light and early morning skies, a color that invites contemplation and conveys a calm dignity that complements every wardrobe, from formal evening wear to everyday elegance.

At the center of this piece sits a transparent 2.20 carat aquamarine, cut in the classic emerald shape, with dimensions of 10.00 x 7.08 x 4.75 mm. The stone displays a light color saturation that reads as subtle and sophisticated, rather than loud, and it has been graded as very slightly included when examined at eye level, a characteristic that affirms its natural origin while leaving the overall visual experience pure and luminous. The polish on the gem is excellent, allowing light to travel unimpeded through the facets and to reveal the aquamarine true character. Importantly, this aquamarine has received no enhancement, a rarity in an age when many gems are treated to modify color or clarity, and its origin is verified as Brazil, a region renowned for producing aquamarines that balance color, clarity, and depth. For those who seek authenticity and a connection to the earth from which a gem is born, this natural state is a meaningful distinction.

Accenting the central aquamarine are two white baguette shaped natural diamonds, positioned to enhance the stone without competing for attention. The combined diamond weight is approximately 0.16 carats, and these straight baguette cuts offer an architectural counterpoint to the central emerald cut, reinforcing the ring's air of classical proportion. The diamonds carry a clarity of Very Slightly Included, with grades of VS1 and VS2, which ensures a clean, sparkling contribution to the overall composition, and their color grade is E, reflecting a bright near colorless presence that harmonizes with the aquamarine without introducing warmth that would alter the ensemble. The mounting is crafted entirely in 18K yellow gold, a metal historically associated with permanence and prestige. The warm tone of the gold cradles the cool greenish blue of the aquamarine, creating a balanced contrast that is simultaneously luxurious and understated, an aesthetic that honors traditional design principles while feeling fresh in contemporary settings.

The Natural Gemstone Company sources this aquamarine with a commitment to ethical mining practices that respects both people and place, a value that is integral to the legacy we aspire to uphold. The stone is traceable to Brazilian mines where operations adhere to responsible environmental stewardship and to fair labor standards, ensuring that the beauty of the gem does not come at the cost of human dignity or ecological harm. Our procurement partners prioritize reduced environmental impact through careful site management and reclamation efforts, and they engage with local communities to foster sustainable livelihoods that persist beyond the life of a single mine. In addition to environmental measures, transparency is maintained throughout the supply chain, so that the provenance and natural state of the aquamarine can be affirmed without ambiguity. By choosing a gemstone that has not been enhanced, and that has been mined and handled conscientiously, buyers are invited to participate in a tradition of thoughtful acquisition that aligns beauty with ethics.

This ring embodies a story of continuity, combining the enduring geometry of the emerald cut, the serene purity of a Brazilian aquamarine, and the refined accent of baguette diamonds, all set in the warm embrace of 18K yellow gold. It is a piece meant to be appreciated across generations, a ring that can mark milestones, commemorate vows, or serve as a treasured heirloom that carries both aesthetic and moral value. At The Natural Gemstone Company we take pride in presenting jewelry that reflects the deep history of gemstones, while also answering to modern expectations for responsible sourcing and masterful craftsmanship.
