Description : We love when information just comes into our life. In this case, I had the great fortune of photographing this ring, and within 2 days, I met a woman who was wearing the same ring! That is the power of jewelry. We have never seen another one like it. According to Emiko Konishi, a Geologist turned Gemologist student at GIA, offers her research to pass on about her ring, and this amazing coincidence: 'The Lighthouse Lens Cut was developed by Strellman's, which was originally founded in Oregon in 1948 by Richard Strellman, and inspired by the Fresnel lenses used in lighthouses. The cut radiates light outward in dramatic fashion. Pieces were typically made in the 1950s-1970s, and most stones are synthetic (I've seen green and blue spinel, sappire, ruby, and quartz/glass), cut from very large roughs (~125+ct) down to about 10 carats finished. The rings are usually set in 14K gold. The hallmark "Strell" stamped inside the band is characteristic of authentic mid 20th century production. Later pieces, especially after the brand was revived in the 2000s, often carry the full "Strellman" name instead. The Strellman jewelry brand was acquired in 2014 by Julianne Paulsen, a Minnesota based jewelry retailer and designer. She had been a longtime seller of Strellman pieces at her store, Rocks the Jeweler, located in Virginia, MN. After the acquisition, Paulsen continued the legacy of Strellman's distinctive designs, including the iconic Lighthouse Lens Cut jewelry.' Sources unknown. Isn't that an amazing story? The ring told its own history. There is no mathmatical % that could ever be applied to such an astronomical coincidence! I think not! Size 6.75
