Black Jade Ring in Handmade Baroque Silver Setting

About the Item

Looking like a ring straight from the 17th-century, this contemporary Baroque-style hand-fabricated silver ring showcases a high-polish oval cabochon of certified untreated black Burmese jadeite. Actually, it's dark green jade. But unless it's backlit and resting on a window ledge, it reads as black. Although sometimes a moody swirl of bluish-green will inexplicably appear, which you can see in the images. So rather than being entirely black-black like an onyx ring, this black gem is black except for the unpredictable occasions it decides not to be. The ring was hand-crafted by a jeweler in Mexico and has not been worn. What attracted me to this ring initially was the gleam of the black jade and the deeply carved and oxidized mounting. It's such a uniquely impressive ring. It's also satisfyingly weighty and substantial, tipping the scales at 19.45 grams. Currently a size 8 ¾, this ring could be resized by your local jeweler. The ring ships with a certificate from Stone Group Labs stating that the jade is Burmese jadeite and is untreated.

Jade & Pearl Ring Certified Untreated
Located in Southbury, CT
A large oval cabochon of translucent seafoam green jadeite jade is surrounded by 16 luminous natural pearls in this ever-stylish 14K white gold halo ring from the early 1950s. The jade stone is natural and untreated and displays a high degree of translucency. Which is why this jade ring looks spectacular whether it is in direct sunshine, or just barely illuminated by the waning light of a nearby window. The luminous jade stone changes its appearance throughout the day, as the light changes. The jade cabochon measures 14.5mm x 9.19mm Seafoam green was pointedly on-trend in the 1950s when this ring was hand-fabricated. The pearls surrounding the jade are at least partially drilled —possibly they are drilled all the way through; I can't tell because of how they are set in the mounting. At least one and probably all of the pearls are natural, un-cultured saltwater pearls. They are older than the ring itself. It's not unusual to encounter repurposed jewelry...
