MOONSTONE AND DIAMOND RING
Set with a circular cabochon cat's-eye moonstone in a pavé-set diamond mount
Metal: Platinum
Stones: 1 cabochon moonstone measuring 10.80 x 15.30 mm
Size/Dimensions: US ring size 5 1/2
Marks: PT 950
Specialist's Notes:
Of the many optical and physical properties that can affect the look of a gem and yield a ‘phenomenal’ stone, chatoyancy or ‘cat’s eye effect’ is among the most striking. Chatoyancy is the effect from needle-like inclusions along a single axis point forming a banded concentration of light which appears as a cat’s eye when the stone is cut en cabochon. The moonstone in this ring is particularly striking as it also exhibits adularescence, another type of gemstone phenomena. In this case, it is light passing through layers of different mineral deposits in the moonstone yielding a moveable cloud-like effect. When this ring is worn, both phenomena are obviously displayed and make for a unique gemstone!
