“The most exquisite ring in this collection is the checkerboard green tourmaline. The rough gemstone was perfectly fashioned into a checkerboard cut, an unusual cut, but one that shows off its inky blue-green color.”
Pop of Color A flash of color delicately, delightfully dancing on your finger. The presence of strongly saturated gemstone color makes these rings impressive. Ranging from four carats to over ten, they are the perfect addition to a jewelry wardrobe.
