Bringing to mind the architecture of New York City in the 1930s this arrangement of baguette and brilliant cut stones featured regularly in the designs created by the House during this period. Nestled beneath the verdant rainforests that cover the country, the Columbian mines are famous for producing stones that have an intense pure green colour. The rare 18.99ct example that has been set as the centrepiece of this ring is accompanied by certification from the renowned (AGL) American Gemmological Laboratories to confirm its Colombian origin, and that it has only been subjected to moderate treatment to enhance its colour and clarity. A collectible jewel from one of the most famous makers of the 20th- century a unique serial number has been engraved into the inside section of the shank. Check Specifications for ring size details.
