Burmese Ruby and Golconda Diamond Harmony Ring

This exquisite ring features alternating lines of old natural Burmese ruby beads and squares, each line telling a story of Burma’s rich gemstone past. The rubies, known for their deep red hue and exceptional clarity, are complemented by the legendary old Golconda diamonds, both in European and single cuts, which add a touch of historical grandeur with their unparalleled brilliance. The setting of the rubies and diamonds is done in 9K gold, while the ring’s shank is crafted from 18K gold.

Golconda diamonds are treasured for their historical significance and exceptional craftsmanship. Originating from the legendary Golconda mines in India, these diamonds are known for their pure and colorless quality, often classified as Type IIa, which is chemically the purest form of diamond. The Old European Cut is a specific style of diamond cutting that was popular from 1890 to 1930. These diamonds are characterized by their round shape, high crown, deep pavilion, and large facets, which produce a distinctive sparkle with a soft, warm glow. Unlike modern diamonds that are cut with precision machinery, Old European Cut diamonds were cut by hand, giving each stone a unique charm and slightly asymmetrical appearance. They are rare because the Golconda mines were depleted over time, and the art of hand-cutting diamonds in this old style has largely been replaced by modern cutting techniques. This makes Golconda not only rare but also highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts who appreciate the historical value and unique beauty of these gems.

The old natural Burmese rubies hold a captivating allure due to their unique characteristics and historical significance. These rubies, originating from the Mogok region in Myanmar (formerly Burma), are prized for their rich red color and exceptional clarity. 

This piece blends the allure of Burmese rubies with the mystique of Golconda diamonds, all set in the splendor of gold. It is a ring that resonates with the harmony of its components, a true collector’s item that will be treasured for generations.
