Vintage 16.21ct Carved Aquamarine and 1.56ct Diamond and 18ct White Gold Stylised Insect Ring – Circa 1970

A stunning, fine and impressive unusual vintage 16.21 carat carved aquamarine and 1.56 carat diamond, 18 carat white gold stylised insect ring; part of our diverse vintage jewellery and estate jewelry collections

This stunning, fine and impressive aquamarine ring has been crafted in 18ct white gold.

The ring has been modelled in the form of a stylised insect/beetle.

The pierced decorated white gold setting is embellished with a stunning feature claw set 11.96ct pear cut carved aquamarine, representing the abdomen.

The feature gemstone is encompassed with five further triangular cut aquamarines, totalling 4.25cts, in a combination of claw and collet settings.

The multi-stranded tapering ring shoulders are accented with twenty-six pavé set modern brilliant round cut diamonds, flanking four impressive collet set diamonds to either side.

The broad shoulders integrate with the feature setting and blend seamlessly with the ring shank.

The dress ring is hallmarked to the interior of the shank with the 18ct gold fineness mark (750) and has been independently tested using state of the art technology (Niton XL2 Analyzer) and verified as 18 carat gold.

This impressive vintage aquamarine and diamond ring is supplied with an IDGL diamond and gemstone grading report card.

The carved aquamarine and diamond stylised insect ring combines imaginative naturalistic design with fine gemstone craftsmanship to create a distinctive and expressive piece. The carved aquamarine forms an unusual focal point, while the diamonds enhance brilliance and visual definition. The stylised insect motif adds symbolic and artistic character, making the ring particularly suited to milestone birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, retirement celebrations or gifts for those who appreciate nature-inspired and unconventional jewellery. Its rarity and craftsmanship also give it enduring heirloom appeal.

This impressive vintage ring is excellent quality, set with impressive aquamarines displaying fine colour, brilliance and presence.

The high colour and clarity graded diamonds display a fine white colour and brilliance.

The ring is an excellent gauge of gold and is in excellent condition, with a clear hallmark to the interior of the shank.

I have dealt with AC silver on several occasions

I have dealt with AC silver on several occasions and always found Andrew extremely knowledgable and trustworthy. Nothing is too much trouble and I am absolutely delighted with my last purchase of a 5 stone diamond ring. From start to finish the process was extremely easy and everything catered for. It was a pleasure to del with Andrew and his most helpful and charming Assistant.

Excellent customer care.

I had to place the order over the phone as my internet was misbehaving. The lady who I spoke to could not have been more helpful and was particularly careful to get all the details correct. I was then informed about the collection and dispatch of the item purchased, by email. The item arrived as expected and it had been most well packed so that no harm could come to it. It was a delight to purchase this item from C6323, AC Silver, and I could not fault any aspect of their customer care. I was highly delighted with my silver mustard pot and it was much better than the pictures on the web site.
