These are without question one of our favourite natural stones - and these blues - that were popular from Victorian times until the 1930s is cover some of our favourite Eras of jewellery. Blue zircons are heated - they are not found this colour in nature - but just look at the colour - like the most amazing shallow ocean lapping a sandy bay. This stone is so sparkly - as you would expect from zircons - and paired with two diamonds this is a fabulous piece. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eHeld in a handmade 18ct yellow gold setting - you can see even by the placement of the  claws that this piece is entirely handmade - and has had claws etc re-worked over its lifetime. The shoulders are platinum - classic 1930s style - the mixed metal and the platinum shoulders for that brightness for the diamond. The hand carved shoulders are a delight - and are truly one of the things we love most about this Era. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eParticulars: \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eSize just over M1\/2 or 6.5 (sizeable)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eWeight 2.80g \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eWidth 10.35 x 8.3mm x 4.95mm proud on a half round shank of 1.6 x 1.25mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e2 x early brilliant natural diamonds 2.5mm - combined approx 0.15ct \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e1 x blue zircon - 9 x 7mm - approx 2.25ct \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eHallmarks  - none - tested for 18ct Gold, and platinum \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eCondition - this is a pre-loved hand made ring - the claws have had work - you can see gold solder on the platinum shoulders. Stone is secure but a couple of the claws are a little catchy - we did not want to get them filed as this would lose more claw tip - some chips to stone face - as expected with a stone only 7 on the Mohs Scale. Stone handcut and quite shallow.  Condition has been reflected in the price. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eCare - As a general rule - jewellery should not be worn for strenuous tasks that may put pressure, chemicals and weight on them (think cleaning, gym, swimming\/spa, carrying things). Jewellery should be inspected checked every six months by a jeweller to check for wear. Zircons will scratch over time - it is part of owning them. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003ePlease be aware that this item is pre-loved and therefore is NOT new.
