NATURAL 7.38ct Ruby/zoicite Ethnic style Ring, size 7 - 825 Sterling Silver
Bold and Beautiful! What we are presenting you here is a fascinating combination of two of the most precious stones in their most natural form. The Ruby, know as "the Queen of Stone and the Stone of Kings", and Zoisite which is the primitive form of Tanzanite are found in this beautiful Anyolite cabochon. It is said to be named after the Maasai word anyoli, meaning "green." Anyolite is also referred to as Ruby/Zoisite or Tanganyika Artstone.The contrasting colours make anyolite very popular. This specific piece used in this ring comes from the Mundarara Mine, near Longito, Tanzania, where the tanzanite was originally discovered in 1954. A polished oval cabochon of translucent ruby, the ruby-red variety of the mineral species conundum, in translucent green zoisite with specks of black tschermakite was hand set in a high profile bezel mounting entirely handcrafted in solid 925 sterling silver. The base of the bezel where this stunning stone is nested is decorated by hand-twisted silver wire while the sides of the band show beautiful details of silver spheres and "scrolled" lines.A piece of jewelry outside of the ordinary in its sophisticated simplicity that will add that exotic ethnic touch in your collection ...With our best wishes and always..."HUGS to ALL and ALL to HUGS!!!"
