This Art Deco garnet ring with old mine-cut diamonds in antique style is crafted in lavish platinum, weighs 5.2g and measures 12mm wide and 7mm deep. Reminiscent of Art Deco jewelry design by virtue of distinct geometric lines and artistic juxtaposition of contrasting colors, this alluring Art Deco style garnet ring exposes an opulent prong-set 5.36ct ovular pineapple-faceted rose-cut garnet measuring 11.91mm long and 9.97mm wide, graded a highly desirable 'burgundy' color and 'fair' clarity. This vividly colored gemstone is embraced by gracefully curvaceous, diamond-encrusted rectangular plaques, surmounted by diamond-adorned scrolls with bejeweled triumvirate finials adorning the shoulders. These diamond adorned countenances are cumulatively bead-set with 0.30cts of fiery old mine-cut diamonds graded I-J color and SI1 clarity, embellished with immaculately mille grained contours. This assemblage of color contrasted garnet and diamonds surmounts a curvaceous, asymmetrically themed pierced openwork gallery. Elaborately designed shoulders enhanced by graceful, skillfully mille grained scrolls merge into a spherical platinum band and an easily sizable 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 meaningful tradition of wearing birthstones, garnet is the birthstone for th month of January.
