This vivid centralgem (oval) ismounted in a four-prong basket. A pair of decorative, chevron-shaped epaulettes frame the emerald. Theseshoulder embellishments are really charming— each is composed of three diamond-shaped, diamond-set plaques that sit at staggered heights,coming together to create the chevron shape. Below this arrangement of gemstones, the ring's gallery is graceful, with curling wirework and a central, heart-shaped element. The ring's substantial shank widens subtly toward the base. This ring is marked for purity. It would make a lovely engagement ring, for an emerald-loving bride.
