This blue moonstone Art Nouveau Ring with old mine-cut diamonds is handcrafted in 14k yellow gold, weighs exactly 5.0g and measures 28mm wide and 7mm deep. This enthralling Art Nouveau blue moonstone ring of exquisite design and unmatched artistic craftsmanship exposes an ovular, 5.98ct cabochon blue moonstone measuring 14mm long and 10mm wide, graded 'chatoyant blue' color and 'good' clarity. This absorbing gemstone with its magical play of colors is secured by eight ornately designed prongs, within an exquisite, elaborately detailed surround. This quintessentially Art Nouveau style perimeter surrounding the center-stone exposes sensual curves and scrolls, a delicate ribbon-bow and a stylized, 'non-conformist' fleur-de-lis profile embracing the center-stone, the latter embellished with a pair of fiery old mine-cut diamonds cumulatively weighing 0.08cts, graded J color and SI clarity range. Well designed, tapering shoulders of naturalistic inspiration are chased artistically to depict quatrefoil leaves, and chiseled in the center to simulate delicate veins on the stem. This highly elaborate Art Nouveau blue moonstone ring of rare and superb aesthetic beauty concludes with a spherical yellow gold band and an easily sizable shank.

Moonstone is one of the most fascinating gemstones on earth, surrounded by mystical and magical connotations. A member of the large family of feldspars which provide approximately two thirds of all gemstones on earth, moonstone is endowed with the magic phenomenon of ‘adularescence’ meaning scales of lamellas within the structure of the stone which enable the incoming light to refract and scatter. Termed by some as ‘nature’s treasure with sensuous and seductive charm’, moonstone should not only be admired but also handled and lovingly worn to display her unique characteristics with fascinating light and color nuances. In spite of her fragile nature and a hardness which does not exceed six on Mohs’ scale, she is considered a sacred stone in India. Believed to symbolize ‘a holistic view of man and woman’, the moonstone’s soft shine supports emotional and dreamy tendencies of a person making her an ideal token of love and genuine feeling.
