Russian-Origin 2.5ct Emerald and 1.0ct Diamond Ring in 14K White Gold, GIA, Circa 1950s

An emerald cut emerald anchors this ring, its deep, saturated green certified by GIA as Russian in origin; material from the historic Ural Mountains deposits, rarely seen in the market today compared to the Colombian and Zambian emeralds that dominate current supply. A round brilliant diamond sits below the emerald, itself a substantial stone at approximately 1 carat, while six smaller round diamonds trace the filigree work surrounding the centerpiece. The mounting is built in a detailed openwork filigree style, with scrolling gold forming a frame around the emerald rather than a plain bezel or prong setting; delicate metalwork that was a hallmark of 1950s fine jewelry construction. The result reads as ornate and intentional, a ring built to showcase both a rare stone and the hand-finished gold surrounding it. The center emerald weighs approximately 2.5 carats.

Excellent vintage condition; no visible wear, damage, or loose stones in photographs. Stamped 14K. Size 7. Weighs 9 grams total.
