This Art Deco rhodolite garnet ring with old mine-cut diamonds in antique style is crafted in lavish platinum, weighs 5.3g and measures 13mm wide and 6mm deep. In captivating, highly ornate period design, this conspicuous brightly colored garnet ring of impeccable artisanship exposes an attention-seeking 3.30ct French square-cut rhodolite garnet measuring 8.5mm long and 8mm wide, graded an eye-pleasing 'scarlet-red' color and 'good' clarity, mounted within a delicately mille grained rectangular setting. This vivacious stone is appreciatively positioned in the center of an angular yet domed plaque, exquisitely pierced in filigree style, depicting intricate lozenge profiles and open profiled triumvirates, immaculately mille grained and cumulatively adorned with 0.72cts of fiery old mine-cut diamonds graded H-I color and VS2-SI1 clarity range. Dainty trios of open marquise silhouettes enhance the aesthetic beauty of the curvaceous gallery and the intriguing triumvirate shoulders, which descend diminutively to merge into a spherical platinum band and an easily sizable platinum shank.

The name garnet, derived from the Latin word 'granum' meaning 'grain', refers to the rounded shape of the garnet crystal resembling the seeds of the pomegranate. In the Middle Ages garnet was also called 'karfunkel' in German, meaning 'the glowing red of the sparks of fire’. In modern times, garnets are known under many names, the most important of which is the fiery red pyrope, with fierce and often slightly bronze shade of red and very popular in the 18th and 19th centuries. Garnets have been widely known for thousands of years. It is written that Noah used a lantern from garnet to safely steer his Ark through the darkness of the night. Garnets are found in jewelry from ancient Egyptian, Greek and Roman eras and travelers wore garnets for protection as they were considered as talismans and protective stones. Garnets continue to be appealing due to their natural and not manipulated beauty, their wide variety of colors, and their magnificent brilliance. For those who adhere to the pleasant and meaningful tradition of wearing birthstones, garnet is the birthstone for th month of January.
