A RARE EMERALD AND DIAMOND RING, YARD
Set with a rectangular-cut emerald weighing approximately 38.84 cts., with trapeze and baguette-cut diamond shoulders to the platinum hoop
Signed by Yard
With certificate CS 31012-3 from the American Gemological Laboratories stating that the emerald is of Colombian origin. No gemological evidence of clarity enhancement present.
With certificate 10169881 from the Gemological Institute of America stating that the emerald is a natural emerald. No evidence of clarity enhancement was detected.
Colombian mines have yielded fine emeralds. According to John Sinkankas in his book, "Emerald and Other Beryls", "...nowhere else are they found in such consistently high quality and quantity." The emerald in the illustrated ring is reputed to have been discovered at Gachalá, a mine that has yielded many superb gems, including the 858 carat crystal, known as the "Gachalá Emerald," a gem of exeptional quality which is now part of the collection of the Smithsonian Institution. Gachalá is located in the center portion of the Boyaca region and the light and highly transparent qualities shown in this stone are typical of this region.
The illustrated emerald has been set into an Art Deco inspired mounting. Flanking either side of the stone are geometrically cut diamonds in trapezoidal and rectangular shapes, arranged in a stepped pattern. Created at the prestigious house of Raymond Yard which uses only the finest gemstones, this ring is superbly designed and crafted.
