This luxurious ring presents a green navette-cut emerald in its center. The green gemstone has been placed on top and is accompanied on both sides by three brilliant-cut diamonds. The emerald is one of the most valuable gemstones and has always been highly valued in many cultures. The ancient Egyptians recognized the healing powers of the emerald early on, especially its effect on the eyes. Pliny the Elder wrote about it in 77 AD: "When the eyes are weakened, they are strengthened again by looking at the emerald. The soft green of the stone dispels languor". Nero, for example, is said to have worn an emerald as a monocle to strengthen his eyes and Cleopatra is also said to have enhanced her beauty and youth by wearing emeralds. The wide shank made of high-carat gold also contributes to the magnificent impression of the piece. The vintage ring from around 1990 is in very good condition and made from high-quality materials. It came to us here in Berlin.
