Solitaire Rhodolite Garnet Ring 1.30 Ct., 14K Yellow & White

The ring features a beautiful, transparent 1.30 carat heart shape purple rhodolite garnet, with the dimensions of 6.56 x 6.89 x 4.06 mm, and a mixed brilliant cut. Rhodolite garnet is a variety of garnet that is renowned for its rich purple to red hues, and in this case, the gemstone exhibits a vivid color that stands out exceptionally well. The term "mixed brilliant cut" refers to a style of gemstone cutting that combines facets of both step cuts and brilliant cuts, enhancing the gemstone’s ability to reflect light and thus maximizing brilliance and fire.
With a clarity grade of very slightly included (evaluated at eye level), this rhodolite garnet is near flawless to the naked eye, meaning it has only minute imperfections that are almost undetectable without magnification. The intense color saturation ensures that the hue is both deep and vibrant, which speaks to the high quality of the gemstone. An excellent polish means that the gemstone has been finely polished to remove any surface imperfections, resulting in a smooth and brilliant appearance.
The origin of this rhodolite garnet is Ceylon (Sri Lanka), a region historically known for producing some of the finest gemstones in the world. The locale’s rich geological diversity and long-standing culture of gemstone craftsmanship add significant value and prestige to this ring.
The ring is entirely set in 18K yellow gold and 18K white gold. 18K gold contains 75 percent pure gold, alloyed with other metals for added durability without compromising the rich color characteristic of high-quality gold. The combination of yellow and white gold in jewelry design offers both a modern and sophisticated aesthetic. The white gold band provides a contemporary contrast that enhances the vibrant color of the rhodolite garnet, while the yellow gold setting around the gemstone adds a traditional touch, highlighting the gemstone’s warm undertones.
This ring is not just a piece of jewelry but also an investment in quality and elegance. The choice of materials, quality of the gemstone, and fine craftsmanship all meet the high standards of an educated and discerning buyer. It represents both timeless beauty and the geological marvels of Ceylon, as well as the expert artistry involved in its creation.
