A glowing wine-red natural oval garnet cabochon is the luminous focal point of this antique 1920s ring. Crafted by hand in 9k rose gold, the cabochon measures 15.54mm x 11.58 and weighs approximately 5 carats. The ring is open in the back, so when you take the ring off, the light will shine through from behind exposing the fascinating mineral interior of the gem and making you want to immediately place it back on your finger. Don't be fooled by the 9k thing. Many spectacular gems were created in this lower carat weight in England over the years -Queen Elizaneth herself owns many pieces rendered in hardy 9ct gold. It's the ideal choice when you want a certain color of gold -here, a light rose- and you want, above all, durability. Case in point: this 100-year-old-ring which looks like it was created last night.
