Contemporary Pearl Diamond Cocktail Dinner Ring

If Dutch Baroque Period painter, Johannes Vermeer had instead painted Girl With Pearl Ring (c. 1665) depicting an imaginary young woman in exotic dress and wearing this beautiful creation, he would have perhaps been far more than “moderately successful” in his day. Despite the accessory change, Scarlett Johansson still would have starred in the movie, just for the chance to wear this beautiful jewel. This lovely cocktail ring, made in the 21st century, is crafted in 18K yellow gold and features a single round pearl measuring approximately 10.5 mm flanked with two round brilliant-cut diamonds with an approximate total weight of 0.50 carat. The most dazzling feature of this ring is not the diamonds, however. It is the otherworldly quality of the yellow pearl and how exquisitely it pairs with the yellow gold setting.

Have you ever seen a pearl set as the principal gemstone in a ring? It presents a quite striking an unusual silhouette, sitting up much higher than a diamond, for example. Cultured South Sea pearls are the largest gemstones on the cultured market, with the size ranging from 8 mm to 20 mm, making them both rare and very valuable. A pearl is one of just a handful of organic gems, like coral, amber, and jet. In a ring, pearls should be worn mindfully as they are soft and are highly delicate, taking care to avoid water, soaps, and lotions. Golden South Sea pearls can take up to 2-4 years to develop and the value is in the color. The deepest golden color, often referred to as 24 karat, is considered the most valuable color of all South Sea pearls. In fact, it is the golden color on the lip of the oyster determines the color of the pearls as they form inside.
Yellow pearls symbolize creativity and optimism as well as wealth and prosperity. It is said that with a yellow pearl on your finger, you are more likely to live life to the fullest. The setting for the diamonds in the ring is particularly energizing and eye-catching, curving up and outward in two directions to follow the curve of the pearl. From top view the design is opulent in its stark minimalism, so we can focus on three beautiful elements in the ring: diamonds, yellow gold, and a yellow pearl.

Size US 6.75, can be resized. Pearl measures 10.5 mm. 2 round diamonds weighing approximately 0.50 carats. Overall weight approx. of 18K yellow gold is 10.38 grams. Circa 21st Century.
