Petite Oval Emerald and Diamond Ring 0.50tcw 18kt Yellow Gold
Gold Diamond Gemstone Jewelry
This Oval Emerald, Tsavorite and Diamond Cocktail Ring is the most architecturally complex piece in our emerald ring collection. A 1.62ct natural oval-cut emerald is set east-west across the finger as the centrepiece, framed by 0.60tcw of emerald-cut tsavorite garnets, 0.06tcw of round emeralds, and 0.12tcw of natural round diamonds. The total composition reads at 2.40tcw in 18kt yellow gold, designed deliberately as a statement cocktail ring rather than a conventional emerald and diamond engagement ring.
The centre stone is a 1.62ct natural oval-cut emerald, set east-west. Flanking the emerald are 0.60ct of emerald-cut tsavorite garnets, a vivid green grossular garnet often called the green diamond for its brilliance and saturated colour. Tsavorite is a natural gemstone discovered in East Africa in 1967, and is considered a collectible green stone in its own right. Additional 0.06ct of round-cut emeralds and 0.12ct of natural round diamonds complete the composition. The dual-green stone palette of emerald plus tsavorite creates a layered green tonal range no single-stone ring can match.
The east-west prong setting holds the centre emerald horizontally across the finger, an unconventional orientation that gives the ring its cocktail-ring character. The 18kt yellow gold construction (750 purity) provides a richer gold tone than 14kt and pairs naturally with both emerald and tsavorite green tones. Ring height measures 8.30mm with a 1.50mm band thickness and 3.45g total weight, a profile sized for visible presence on the hand without being uncomfortably tall.
A cocktail ring is defined by visual presence rather than a particular stone or setting. Cocktail rings are designed to be seen across a room, typically combine multiple stones or unconventional setting choices, and are intended for occasion wear or as right-hand statement pieces rather than engagement rings. This piece qualifies on every count: dual green stones (emerald and tsavorite), unusual east-west orientation, mixed cuts, and a substantial 8.30mm ring height. For buyers searching emerald cocktail rings, vintage emerald cocktail rings, or unique green gemstone rings, this is a one-of-a-kind option.
Tsavorite is a green grossular garnet discovered in East Africa in 1967, prized for its vivid green colour and high brilliance. Tsavorite is a natural gemstone, not a synthetic emerald or imitation. It registers 7 to 7.5 on the Mohs hardness scale, slightly softer than emerald (7.5 to 8). Tsavorite tends to read brighter and more transparent than emerald, while emerald carries the deeper, more saturated green tone.
Yes. The 1.62ct oval-cut centre emerald is a natural mined gemstone. All accent stones, the tsavorites, the round emeralds, and the round diamonds, are also natural.
It can be, but it is designed primarily as a cocktail / statement ring. The east-west orientation, multi-stone composition, and 8.30mm ring height make it more suited to right-hand or occasion wear than a conventional engagement ring.
Tsavorite was chosen specifically for its colour relationship with the centre emerald. The two greens are not identical, which creates a layered tonal range across the ring. A diamond accent would read white-on-green; the tsavorite accent reads green-on-green with subtle variation. This is a deliberate design choice.
