Est. $11,000-$11,500 7.21ct Near Flawless Oval-Cut Rubellite, 1.80ctw VS1-VS2/G-H Diamond & Solid 18K White Gold Cocktail Ring - This stunning ring was finely crafted of solid 18k white gold, and boasts a magnificent, 7.21ct near flawless oval-cut rubellite tourmaline. The ring has an ornate design with pierced details around all sides, and is finished with approx. 1.80ctw genuine VS1-VS2/G-H round-cut pave set diamonds. The ring has a raised table that sits approx. 0.5" off of the finger, and the diamonds decorate both the shoulders as well as the north and south sides so that the diamonds surround the rubellite from all angles. The diamonds are fiery white and accent the brilliant red 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, and this particular rubellite is a true raspberry color, with little to no color shift. 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 tourmalines can usually only be found in upper-end or collector's markets. This stone is a massive 7.21ct, and could retail alone for approx. $1000 or more per carat, as you simply cannot find rubellite of this size and quality anymore, as it no longer exists. This ring is in beautiful condition, and is stamped on the inside of the band with the gemstone weights, along with the gold purity. The table of the ring measures approx. 20mm x 18.5mm. Ring size: 6.25. (WEIGHT: 11.6 grams)
