About the Item
This extremely well-detailed moonstone has a charming face of the man in the moon. It is exquisitely carved, with a matte surface to the carving. The man has a nice wide smile and rounded cheeks—he also reminds us of the face of Buddha. The carving has a high relief that adds to its character. The moonstone glows, and when held to the light, flickers with blue, purple and yellow iridescence that appears throughout the translucent stone. A diamond halo surrounds the moon, with bright white diamonds that offset the piece, and a milgrain border that accentuates the beauty of the diamonds. A simple split shank band gives the ring a clean look and squares off along the bottom.
This ring is circa the 1950’s, but the Man in the Moon was a popular motif during the Victorian era. Inspired by the shadowy face that seems to appear within the craters of a full moon, the Man in the Moon has captured the human imagination for centuries and has been referenced throughout the ages in myths and folklore. It made its way into Victorian jewelry around the turn of the century, when celestial jewelry was a popular motif, reflecting the culture’s fascination with astronomy.
The moonstone measures 9.25 mm across. The ring contains 30 natural diamonds that measure 1 mm each for a TCW of .30 of a carat. The diamonds are H in color and VS2 in clarity.
The face of the ring measures 12.25 mm across. It sits approximately 1/4” above the finger. The ring weighs 3.6 grams. Marked as 750 for 18k gold.
