Spessartite Garnet and Tourmaline Ring
Autumn Embers |
| Autumn in New England is a blaze of rich,
vibrant shades of yellow, orange and red - the colors of the
turning autumn leaves. This handcrafted ring was inspired
by the beautiful seasonal colors right here in New
Hampshire, the home of Bijoux Extraordinaire. The centerpiece of this ring is an emerald-cut vibrant orange spessartite garnet. Two trillium-cut golden yellow tourmalines flank the orange garnet creating a subtle graduation of autumn hues.  The ring is crafted in 18kt yellow gold with a shimmering satin finish. We tapered the edge of the band and created a beveled edge to complement the triangular-shape of the yellow tourmalines. The bevel begins at the outer point of each tourmaline and follows along the circumference of the band. The colors of the gems and the 18kt gold are like the burning embers of a setting autumn sun.  We selected this spessartite garnet for its vibrant orange color and striking emerald-cut shape. The yellow tourmalines perfectly complement the color and shape of the center stone. Each gemstone is set in partial bezels that protect the outer edges of the triangular tourmalines and the upper and lower edges of the spessartite garnet. The tourmalines neatly nestle along the straight sides of the spessartite creating a dramatic trilogy of gemstones that form a glowing blaze.  This side view shows the care our goldsmith took in crafting this ring. The half-bezel settings securely hold the gemstones. The thickness of the band throughout its circumference ensures that this ring will last a lifetime.  An inside view also shows our craftsman's attention to detail. Note the thick sturdy walls beneath the bezel settings, the even surfaces and the crisp cut-outs beneath the gemstones. We like to say that a fine jewel should be as beautiful on the inside as it is on the outside. Like all Bijoux jewels, this ring passes the test!  |
