Spring Rings

The trading of diamonds can be traced back to India during the 4th century BC. It took until 1400 AD before diamonds began traveling West, and became coveted by Europe’s wealthiest residents.

The word “diamond” originates from the Greek word, “adamas” meaning, “unbreakable”. They are a unique stone as they’re the only gem composed of just one element – carbon, which resides inside a grid-like structure due to the way the gem forms. This atomic octahedral arrangement is what makes diamonds 58 times harder than anything else found in nature. Trace elements, making up no more than 0.05% of a diamond, defines the stone’s color.  

This antique diamond and gold ring holds three Old European cut diamonds set in 18 karat gold; it was hand crafted in England in about 1890-1900. The center stone weighs approximately .45 carats and is set in a modified 8-prong belcher setting makes it resemble the center of a delicate flower. The side stones weigh approximately .125 carats each, making the total carat weight of this ring is around .7 carats. The ring face measures 11.5 mm north to south and 16 mm across and it sits 4 mm off the finger with a band width of 2.0 mm at the back of the ring. It is a size 5.5 and weighs 6.1 grams. This piece has been professionally acid tested.  

This ring would be a fantastic engagement ring! It’s as beautiful and unique, just like the love of your life.

The word "jade" communicates a sense of mystery. In Mandarin, "jade" (yu) refers to a fine, beautiful stone with a warm color and rich luster, that is skillfully and delicately carved. In Chinese culture, jade symbolizes nobility, perfection, constancy, and immortality. It is known as the “imperial gem”, as it was worn by the most wealthy and influential members of society.  For millennia, jade has been an intimate part of the lives of Chinese of all ranks and classes. It has been mined and used in jewelry for royalty since the Neolithic period. Xu Shen, the Chinese scholar-official and philologist from the Han Dynasty, 58 – 148 BC, noted the five virtues of jade: charity, rectitude, wisdom, courage, and equity. 

This antique jade pendant was handcrafted around 1900, and is likely Chinese. A silk hanger supports seed pearls on gold wire and a stunning green and white jade pendant. The pierced and carved design shows hummingbirds fluttering around flowers, and sipping sweet nectar. The jade is 55 mm in diameter and 4 mm in depth. The drop is 97 mm in length. Overall, this unique piece weighs 19.2 grams. There are no marks. The top bead on this pendant has a hairline crack, the pendant itself is in excellent condition.

Many Chinese people wear their jade as close to the heart as possible. Rings and bracelets go on the left side, as it is nearest the heart. Pendants like this slip perfectly over the neck to rest next to the heart, protecting it and healing it.

This ring was crafted during a time when pearls were accessible only to the wealthy, due to their rarity. Finding pearls that matched in size, shape, and color could take years, as the farming of pearls wasn’t developed until the 1920s. Pearls had to be found the old-fashioned way, by diving into the sea and searching through thousands of mollusks by hand. Crafting a necklace or ring with similar pearls would take years. These natural gemstones were reserved for royalty and the upper class. This ring was made around 1890, and most likely belonged to a well-to-do Victorian woman with a great sense of style.

This antique pearl and 18 karat gold ring was handcrafted in England. There are five round cabochon pearls across the ring face, with the center pearl measuring 5 mm in diameter. Each pearl is shimmering and unique, they are well matched in their lustrous ivory color. This ring is a size 8.75 and weighs 4.2 grams. It has been acid tested.

At his writing desk, he sat, with his feathered quill, making notes to his son faraway, in London. The end of the letter was always the most difficult. How to wrap his words with all the meaning he longed to convey? How to say love without saying it? Adore? Admire? He looked out his window at the noon sun, he watched the carriages go by and the mailman walk past. An idea struck him and his pen hit the parchment with ardor, “Always proud, your Father”, he wrote with loopy cursive. He folded the page, and tucked it inside an envelope. From his pocket, he withdrew his fob seal, that hung from the chain of his pocket watch, and stamped a dollop of crimson wax with the phrase, “The Memory of the Heart of Gratitude”. He tucked his pocket watch away, grabbed his finished letter, and met the mailman at the door.

He knew she wanted it, he spotted her gazing at it through the store window every time they walked to their favorite restaurant.
