Rubellite Tourmaline and Diamond Ring
Magenta Eye of the Nile! |
|
When designing our Eye of the Nile Rings Judi is inspired by the dynasties and decorative arts of ancient Egypt. She hopes to create a jewel fit for a queen - perhaps Cleopatra or Nefertiti.
The center stone is a vivid Rubellite Tourmaline. The Rubellite is cradled in a platinum bezel and flanked by two brilliant-cut diamonds. The ring is handcrafted in platinum with a satin finish.
 With this ring we wanted to capture the elegance of a Royal Barge floating down the Nile. The marquise shape of the Rubellite and its bezel setting represent the body of the boat. The two diamonds rise up like two lotus blossom pillars at the bow and prow.
 Just below the brilliant diamonds we channel set a line of Purple Sapphires. The Purple Sapphires are the perfect complement to the white brilliance of the diamonds and the vivid magenta hue of the Tourmaline.
 Of course an imaginatively designed jewel must also be comfortable to wear. We slightly flattened the inside of the band and rounded the edges so that the ring slides easily and rests comfortably on your finger.
 As always, a beautiful jewel is as well crafted and finished on the underside as it is on the top. Note the polished surfaces, the even under-bezel beneath the Tourmaline and the smooth bridge between the band and the center setting. Always turn over a jewel to make sure that proper care and pride were taken in creating the jewel.
 As with all of our jewels, the inside of this ring is stamped with our registered Hallmark ("BEL") and the precious metal mark ("PLAT"). These marks are your assurance of superior craftsmanship and outstanding design.
