Mesmerising : Estate Step Cut Citrine Cocktail Ring in 9ct Yellow Gold

♥Sold♥

It’s easy to get lost in the infinite golden depths of this 9.3 carat step cut citrine. It draws your eye down into the clear honeyed light that plays through this wonderful natural gemstone. The effect is similar to an optical illusion – the depth of the stone appears to be much greater than the size of the ring on your finger.

The hue of the stone changes with the quality of light – it can be limoncello coloured in the cold light of an early winter morning, or glowing amber in the late afternoon sun. An astonishingly beautiful crisp and clear stone, in outstanding condition.

Citrine is the birthstone for November. It is a stone of manifestation and abundance. Its positive energy encourages creativity and an abundance of joy, success and positivity.

Manufacture:
The large 14mm x 14.5mm x 7.5mm (measured in the setting) natural citrine gemstone has been expertly step cut and rub-over set into a 9ct yellow gold basket. The bezel keeps the stone secure and prevents any chips or scratches to the girdle in this generously sized gem. The basket is pieced with two large windows on the north and south faces of the basket, allowing the maximum amount of light to penetrate the stone. The half-round band is flared at the shoulders and measures 2.4mm wide and 1.3mm thick at the back of the band. The ring sits 8.55mm high on the finger.
Stamped 375 to the inside of the band. Weighs 7.1 grams

The ring is difficult to size – not being a perfect circle. On the mandrel it measures size J / 4.75 but it fits more like a size J 1/2 or 5.25. Can be resized larger but not any smaller.

Condition:
Absolutely outstanding. This ring looks as if it has never been worn. There is not a single scratch or chip to the stone, and no signs of wear to the gold. Ready for immediate and everyday wear.
