Description : Colombia still produces 70-90% of all emerald supplied to a global market. It is considered to be some of the most valuable gemstones on earth. Most of the mining takes place in the area called The Eastern Ranges. Colombian emeralds have been used as adornment and in jewelry for over 4,000 years. It is a form of beryl, which is 5.5 on the Mohs scale for hardness. The faceted pear shaped emerald in this ring is 2.10 carats, and securely set in 18K white gold. What is extraordinary about this ring however in addition to the rarity, size, and quality of this bluish green gemstone, is the flared skirt like design filled with over 1 carat total weight of 26 straight baguette natural diamonds invisibly set in an undulating 18K white gold form. The skill needed to set these diamonds on this surface is an example of master craftsmanship. The white gold is cast, and the gemstones are then set on the top of the ring within this form.
