I bought an Edwardian demantoid ring this afternoon. It has a pair of bright, sparkly grass-green demantoid garnets set with little rose-cut diamonds in platinum, with an 18K yellow gold shank. No markings, but it looks French to me. The demantoids are fairly small, about 4 mm each, which is what? .25 carats or so? But they sparkle like crazy, and one of them has a classic horsetail inclusion right under the table--it looks like a dandelion gone to seed.
I took some pictures, but it''s nighttime here and the flash doesn''t flatter the stones. I''ll try to get some better photos in the daylight tomorrow.
