Superfine Small Bright Emerald, 18ct Gold ring, as minimal as possible but of the highest quality. The little Emerald, origin Zaire Africa, is AGrade commercial quality, a very lively little gemstone, naturally included, simply about as good as it comes in an Emerald of this size and cut. The setting is solid 18ct Gold, handcrafted Sydney, not cast, not machine-made, not mass-produced, and crafted not in a low-labour-cost region but in Australia.
The last time a ring very similar to the above ring was put up on the site was mid 2021, when its price was $890. In the 24 months since then the cost of labour, the cost of the professional gemstone setting and final polish, have all risen somewhat, but the real difference is in the increased Gold price in those 24 months.
The 18ct Gold in this handmade gem is over 2 grams, constituting around 40% of the end price.
