Antique Art Deco Carved Emerald Cameo and Diamond Ring of a Pharaoh

About the Item

Mastering the art of gemstone carving is a lengthy journey, and emeralds are particularly challenging to work with. Carving emeralds requires a high level of skill and experience, as the stone's brittleness makes it prone to breaking under pressure, despite its hardness of 7.5-8 on the Mohs scale. The presence of internal inclusions in most emeralds further complicates the process, increasing the risk of fractures during carving. This exceptionally rare Art Deco ring dates to the 1920's when all things Egyptian became wildly popular after King Tut’s tomb was discovered in 1922. The hand carved emerald pharaoh is elegantly framed by tiny diamond-set leaves, mounted in an exquisitely hand engraved setting with neoclassical detailing on the shoulders and reverse. Hand fabricated in platinum topped rose gold. Currently a ring size 6.25 Weight: 16.7 grams Measurements: 1 1/4" long x 7/8" wide x 3/8" deep Markings: none Notes: The carved emerald is semi-translucent and heavily included with surface-reaching inclusions. Typical of carved material.
