Est. $13,000-$13,500 8.45ct Near Flawless Checkerboard Faceted Oval-Cut Rubellite & Solid 18K Yellow Gold Cocktail Ring W/0.25ctw SI1-SI2/G-H Diamond Accents (W/$13,500 Appraisal) - This stunning ring was finely crafted of solid 18k yellow gold, and boasts a magnificent, 8.45ct (approximate) genuine near flawless rubellite. The rubellite has a beautifully brilliant color, and has high end facet work that truly creates the essence of this gorgeous piece. The ring is then finished with approx. 0.25ctw genuine SI1-SI2/G-H round-cut diamonds which create a "halo" around the rubellite and line the shoulders of the piece. The diamonds are fiery white and accent the brilliant raspberry color of the rubellite beautifully. This piece is absolutely breathtaking, and truly embodies high quality and sophistication. This is a true investment piece, as rubellite is one of the most popular gems on the market today. Rubellites of this size are becoming harder and harder to come by, and when you can find them, they are usually grainy and heavily included. These types of quality tourmalines can usually only be found in upper-end or collector's markets. This stone is a massive 8.45ct, and could you simply cannot find rubellite of this size and quality anymore, as it no longer exists. Ring size: 6.25 (WEIGHT: 6.3 grams) Please note: This piece will come with a $13,500 appraisal by a graduate appraiser in the winning bidder's name for insurance purposes.
