Venus Setting Emerald Cut 8.08ct Namibian Indicolite Tourmaline and Diamond Ring in 18ct Yellow Gold

A distinctive greenish-blue Namibian indicolite tourmaline (8.08cts) takes centre stage perfectly complemented by two romantic heart cut diamonds (1.01cts) set either side. The tourmaline set into this ring originated from the Erongo region of Namibia, which produces exceptional examples with indicolite, ‘lagoon’ and ‘mint’ tones. Most of the miners work in small independent groups sharing the profits equally from this important gemstone that symbolises prosperity and hope. Pragnell are proud to showcase this breath-taking Erongo indicolite tourmaline, which has been hand selected by the family for its superlative colour and clarity. As a sixth-generation family run business the Pragnell family are delighted to support the cooperative run mine, which focuses on the welfare of the miners and the local community. Both diamonds are certified (GIA) confirming sought after G colour and VS2 clarity grades. The romantic Pragnell Venus setting has been inspired by the Botticelli masterpiece with the tactile curved forms of the central gemstone reminding us of the shell that supported the Goddess as she arrived on the island of Cyprus. Handcrafted in our workshops in the heart of England this ring offers the superb quality of the Pragnell Seal, and showcases exceptional artistry, craftsmanship and gemstones.
