Solid and luxurious, this is a modern ring. It is hand forged from high karat gold and presents a particularly beautiful red tourmaline, a rubellite, with about 4.73 carats in a cylindrical setting. The star-cut gemstone has an intense red colour reminiscent of raspberries. If you look through it, for example by holding the ring in front of the sun, its interior reveals an interesting structure of natural inclusions. The rubellite is set in yellow gold. Twelve brilliant cut diamonds set on the shoulders of the rounded rail enhance the beauty of the gemstone. They, in turn, are set in rose gold. The rounded shapes also make the ring particularly comfortable to wear, despite its size. A modern, hand-forged piece of jewelry with an impressively beautiful gemstone. We date the ring to the years around 1990.

Tourmaline is a gemstone that is able to immediately captivate almost all gemstone lovers with its diverse play of colors. From blue, to yellow, pink and green, almost all colors occur and its wonderful radiance makes the tourmaline one of the most valued gemstones since time immemorial. The name tourmaline comes from the Sinhalese word thuramali (තුරමලි) or thoramalli (තෝරමල්ලි), which was commonly used for colorful gemstones found in Sri Lanka. The name was first recorded in writing for Europe in 1707, or in 1711 under the name Chrysolithus Turmale. Larger quantities were exported from Sri Lanka to Europe only since the middle of the 18th century. At that time the Dutch East India Company had practically a trade monopoly for tourmalines. The red variety of tourmaline is called rubellite. Rubellites occur in all shades of red, from light pink to deep dark red, and are the more popular the more they resemble the good colored rubies.
