Purple Jade & Diamond Ring

The Fun:

In this part of the world we typically see jade in the green hues.  Please meet lavender jade!  Lavender jadeite, a type of jade known for its soft violet hue, is primarily mined from Myanmar and Guatemala.  The lavender color is caused by the presence of manganese.  This piece has been fashioned into a soft oval shape and is flanked by round brilliant cut natural mined diamonds.  We are loving the ever so slightly wider foundation - perfect for every day wear. 

The Technical:

18K white gold jade & diamond ring. 4.0 grams. One oval cabochon purple jade, 8x6mm & 10 round brilliant cut diamonds, .10pts, I clarity, HIJ color. Ring size 6.
