Antique three-stone ring centering a cushion-cut emerald approx. .80 carats, with GIA stating it is of Colombian origin with only minor oil enhancement. Flanked by two pear shaped diamonds of approximately .45 carats, each bezel set in platinum with millegrain. Circa 1925.

The simple platinum setting really lets the emerald and diamonds maximize their presence without much metal showing, but are still secure within bezel mountings.

Diamond and gold mining has caused devastation in areas such as Africa, wreaking havoc on delicate ecosystems and communities. Choosing to go vintage, you are eliminating the need for more mining and lessening the demand for new diamonds.
