This stunning French antique emerald ring has been crafted in 14ct yellow gold.

The substantial and impressive pierced decorated frame displays a feature 1.22ct hexagonal step cut natural Colombian emerald collet set to the centre.

The emerald is bordered by a total of thirteen old mine cut diamonds, collet set in 14ct yellow gold.

There is a smooth transition between the flared shoulders and the plain hallmarked 14 carat yellow gold shank.

The plain ring shank is clearly hallmarked to the exterior with the French 14ct hallmark (shell).

This antique emerald ring is supplied with an IDGL diamond grading report card.

"Rather than regarding inclusions in coloured stones as harmful, in small sizes and numbers that do not in any way detract from their beauty, they should be regarded as adding to desirability, for they provide identifying characteristics."
