Three Stone Garnet Ring 2.46 Ct., 18K Yellow Gold

This ring centers on a transparent 2.46 carat marquise shaped red garnet, measuring 12.18 by 6.46 by 4.18 millimeters, cut in a mixed brilliant style to balance color and light return, and finished with an excellent polish. The mixed brilliant faceting combines modified brilliant crown facets with a pavilion designed to enhance internal reflection, which maximizes scintillation while preserving the gem's vivid color saturation. Clarity is graded very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, indicating minor inclusions that do not disrupt the overall transparency or the gem's ability to transmit light. The garnet is natural, untreated, and sourced from Ceylon Sri Lanka, which contributes to its saturated red tone and stable optical performance. The stone is secured in a precision setting that aligns the marquise axis to the finger, using prong geometry that minimizes obstruction to incoming light, preserving the stone core brilliance and ensuring long term stability.

Flanking the central garnet are two natural white diamonds, cut in a trillion shape, together weighing approximately 0.24 carats, with clarity grades Very Slightly Included VS1 and VS2, and a color grade of E, which provides a high degree of colorless contrast against the garnet. The excellent clarity and E color of the diamonds enhance edge light and flash, creating a complementary halo of white light that frames the red center and reinforces overall brightness. The entire composition is set in 18K yellow gold, selected to warm the garnet hue and provide structural integrity, with a finely executed gallery and bezel clearance that allow light to enter from multiple angles. Craftsmanship emphasizes symmetry, secure setting junctions, and a smooth finish on the band that transitions to open work at the shoulders to reduce visual weight and increase perceived stone size. At The Natural Gemstone Company we present this piece as an engineered expression of devotion, where the mixed brilliant faceting and the diamond side stones work in concert to produce a persistent return of light. The continuous radiance of the garnet center symbolizes eternal love, each reflection representing enduring commitment, and the balanced proportions and durable gold mounting ensure that this symbolism is preserved through daily wear and across generations.
