Green Tourmaline Ring

Ring size 21, crafted in high-purity 950 silver. The rectangular faceted green tourmaline crystal in this simple and delicate ring displays a beautiful dark green hue. The stone, measuring 7 x 5 mm, is held in place by two long prongs at its ends.

The elements that give tourmalines their green hue are vanadium, chromium, or iron. The greatest admirer of tourmalines was Empress Dowager Cixi, who ruled China from 1860 to 1908. The Empress used the stone in carvings, on watch chain clasps, and on the buttons of jackets worn by the Imperial Court.
