Pave Violetish Blue Tanzanite Ring 2.13 Ct., 18K Yellow Gold

This ring centers a precisely executed emerald cut tanzanite weighing 2.13 carats, with calibrated dimensions of 8.92 by 6.87 by 4.21 millimeters and a measured depth percentage of approximately 53.4 percent. The emerald cut is executed as a classic step cut with long rectangular crown and pavilion facets arranged to produce a strong hall of mirrors effect, while preserving color saturation. The cutter has oriented the pavilion and table to exploit tanzanite trichroism, optimizing the violetish blue face up color and minimizing undesirable color zoning by aligning the long step facets along the primary pleochroic axis. Facet junctions are precise and crisp, contributing to well defined facet planes and controlled light return, and the polish is graded excellent, producing low surface diffusion and sharp internal reflections. Clarity at eye clean ensures the step facets read uninterrupted at typical viewing distances, allowing the intense color saturation to register without distraction. The origin from Tanzania is reflected in the mineralogical tone, and the faceting emphasizes the saturated hue while maintaining a balanced brightness that benefits from the stone proportions.

The mounting integrates four round brilliant claw prongs securing the corners, combined with a detailed shoulder motif set with white round natural diamonds selected for spectral neutrality. Accent diamonds include one round weighing approximately 0.04 carats, one round weighing approximately 0.064 carats, one round weighing approximately 0.06 carats, and one round weighing approximately 0.036 carats, each graded clarity VS and color F or G, yielding a total accent weight of approximately 0.20 carats. These accents are handset in a low profile gallery to admit light to the pavilion of the central tanzanite, and their VS clarity and F G color grade were chosen to provide scintillation without introducing color bias against the yellow gold. The entire composition is crafted in 14 karat yellow gold, the warm metal providing a deliberate chromatic contrast to the violetish blue center. All settings are executed with careful attention to symmetry and seat depth to ensure optimal girdle support and secure junctions. This piece is presented by The Natural Gemstone Company, and it demonstrates deliberate lapidary choices and benchwork that prioritize optical performance, color fidelity, and long term structural integrity.
