{"product_id":"victorian-garnet-cabochon-ring-5","title":"Victorian Garnet Cabochon Ring","description":"\u003cp\u003eCharmed antique cabochon ring set with a juicy garnet carbuncle. What's a carbuncle, you may well ask? When it comes to gemstones, it's a red garnet cut \u003cem\u003een cabochon\u003c\/em\u003e with a domed base as well as top. The stone is thus made thinner, bringing out and enhancing its colour, while the curved base acts as a lens to magnify the light reflected back out through it. Rather cunning, and an age-old technique (just try not to think about the anatomical connotations). \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe stone displays a slightly unusual raspberry-pink colour and has a striking inclusion running diagonally through it. The mount is also a little unusual, with its bezel setting incorporating a pierced-openworked gallery to allow light in behind the stone - \u003cem\u003efurther \u003c\/em\u003eenhancing its colour and brightness. Crafted in 9 carat gold with simple split shoulders. It's English made and dates from the 1890s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEra: Victorian, circa 1890\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStone: Garnet, variety almandine-pyrope\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRing size: H or 3.75 US.
