The ring is fully hallmarked, Birmingham 1890, showcasing its rich heritage. At the center, a baguette-cut emerald, with an estimated weight of 0.21 carats, is elegantly set in a yellow gold multi-claw setting. Surrounding the emerald in a marquise shape are 16 old mine-cut diamonds, with a combined estimated weight of 0.76 carats, graded F/G in colour and VS/SI in clarity. This exquisite combination of gemstones reflects both timeless elegance and exceptional craftsmanship.
The marquise-shaped ring, with its distinctive elongated oval and pointed ends, carries a rich history and symbolism. Dating back to 18th-century France, this elegant cut was commissioned by King Louis XV, who desired a diamond shape that resembled the smile of his mistress, the Marquise de Pompadour.
Today, the marquise cut signifies sophistication, grace, and timeless beauty. Its unique design maximizes the size and brilliance of the gemstone, creating an illusion of greater carat weight and elongating the appearance of the finger. In modern symbolism, marquise-shaped rings represent love, ambition, and individuality, making them a bold and meaningful choice for those seeking a ring that stands out with both historical significance and contemporary appeal.
