A demantoid takes center stage in this platinum ring from our workshop. It is a gemstone that probably originates from Namibia and whose soft green color is unusually beautiful. Demantoids belong to the garnet group and are considered to be the most precious garnets of all. The dispersion of the demantoid, i.e. the splitting of light into colored reflections, is even higher than that of a diamond. This is why the gemstone shows an exceptionally vivid play of colors, which once gave it its name: demantoid means "diamond-like". Demantoids became famous at the end of the 19th century due to their occurrence in the Russian Urals. The newly discovered stones were processed by jewelers such as Fabergé and became the most sought-after colored stones of their time. High-quality demantoids are still extremely rare today, as the crystals usually remain small and only a few stones show good color and transparency. Namibian demantoids often show a bright, fresh green of great brilliance. In this ring, the lime green gemstone is framed by eleven brilliant-cut diamonds, while two further diamonds elegantly lead over to the ring band on the right and left. Its design is inspired by the entourage rings of the Belle Époque, when rings with colored stones framed by diamonds were among the most popular ring shapes. The demantoid came to us from an old stock of a Berlin goldsmith. It is set for the first time in this ring. The diamonds in the ring are vintage diamonds that we have used for a second time to make this piece of jewellery sustainable. The platinum used also comes from older pieces of jewellery. The ring thus combines historical materials with a rare gemstone and a contemporary approach to sustainability.
