1.9 Carat Green Tourmaline Bypass Ring in Platinum Accented with Tiny Diamonds
About the Item
Eytan Brandes made this as an engagement ring for a customer about a million years ago. Once the ring came back from the stone-settter with all the teeny weeny side diamonds set, the customer was supposed to show up with the 2 carat center diamond, but instead, the customer showed up with a much larger diamond and a much weirder ring idea. Eytan made the weird ring and put the original ring aside, then promptly forgot about it. For thirteen years.
The ring reemerged earlier this year, literally, since it was lying at the bottom of a box of doo-dads and doohickeys that got excavated in the course of moving stuff around after a glamorous roof leak.
Eytan has made this design several times, always with a diamond center. Since this one seemed ill-fated as a diamond engagement ring, and since it looks great as a right-hand ring, Eytan set it with a vivid green tourmaline, nicely cut and with just a hint of blue undertones.
The stone is beautiful, but it's not eye-clean. It has a sizable inclusion on one side. When it comes to tourmaline, we ignore the CLARITY part of the four C's and focus instead on cut, color, carats and a factor that, since it has to start with C, I guess we'd call CHARACTER. (If it was the 4 S's, we'd call it SOUL.).
Like all of Eytan's rings, this one is built to last, stinting on absolutely nothing. It weighs a hefty 8.2 grams and the tiny diamonds (34 earth-mined and untreated bright boys weighing a total of 0.15 carats) are scrupulously pavé-set by our favorite stone setter in a shallow channel where they're safe from scratches and damage.

- GIA-Certified 2.29 Carat Yellow Sapphire Ring with Tiny Sapphires in 18K GoldBy Eytan BrandesLocated in Sherman Oaks, CAThis new ring by Eytan Brandes is a design he made for one of our long-time customers in platinum with diamonds as an engagement ring. He made an extra copy in 18 karat gold because he wanted a nice setting for a yellow sapphire he's had for several years. Prior to setting the stone, we had it certified by GIA, which confirmed the weight and dimensions, as well as the origin (Sri Lanka). Most important, the report confirms the stone hasn't been subjected to beryllium diffusion, which is the current scourge of the sapphire and ruby trade. The stone has been heated, which is customary and creates permanent improvement in the stone's color, but it has not been filled, chemically altered, or otherwise augmented in any way. The sapphire's intense golden yellow really sparkles thanks to a nice mixed cut (brilliant cut faceting on the crown and step cut faceting on the pavilion). The tiny blue sapphires (totaling less than 0.06 carats), set in little "leaves" on the sides, present some nice unexpected contrast. The band is slender and carinated (i.e., knife-edged), so it's actually thicker (1.8mm) than it is wide (1.6mm). A very striking, comfortable ring, in rich 18 karat yellow gold. The total ring weight is 3.9 grams. Currently a size 5.25, Eytan will resize at no charge for full-price buyers.

- GIA Certified H/VS2 1.03 Carat Diamond in Bombe Edwardian-Style Platinum RingBy Eytan BrandesLocated in Sherman Oaks, CAEytan Brandes designed this ring using various elements he likes from Edwardian engagement rings, such as the carinated shank, the coin-edged pavé setting plates, and the elevated, almost bombé face. This is the second time he has used this mounting, and this is the first time he's set it entirely in diamonds. The center prong-set diamond is a clean and beautiful brilliant cut round stone weighing 1.03 carats. The prongs rise from a band (not actually a bezel) around the stone, minimizing the prongy effect, and keeping the stone's elevation at a graceful minimum. The dramatically curved face of the mounting is made up of little coin-edged plates, joined from below. Each plate hosts between one and five stones meticulously set by our best gem-setter. The little banner-shaped plates around the center stone give it a whimsical eight-pointed star halo, while the long plates...Category

- GIA-Certified 1.99 Carat Oval Sapphire in Platinum Edwardian-Style Bombe SettingLocated in Sherman Oaks, CAEytan Brandes designed this ring using various elements he likes from Edwardian engagement rings, such as the carinated band, the coin-edged pavé setting plates, and the elevated, almost puffy face. But while a ring like this would traditionally be set with diamonds, Eytan gave it a more striking, contemporary look by setting it entirely in sapphires. The center prong-set sapphire is a nearly round oval. To maximize both its color and its sparkle, a mixed cut has been used (i.e., the crown is brilliant cut, while the pavilion is a step cut). Included with the ring is a GIA report authenticating the stone as a natural, heat-treated sapphire weighing 1.99 carats. The pavé mounting is made up of little coin...Category
