Vintage 1960s GRANAT TURNOV Bohemian Garnet Cluster and Gold Wash 900 Silver Marquise Statement Ring Size 7.25

Description

Glistening with 43 rose-cut pyrope garnets, this gorgeous cluster ring is set in gold-washed 900 silver. Made in the 1960s in Granat Turnov, Czechoslovakia, these garnets have a reputation for an inner glow! The tiers of rose-cut garnets catch the light from every angle, drawing your eye to the elegant cluster design.

Bohemian garnets came from the hills of Bohemia in Czechoslovakia and were very popular from the 1820s to the 1920s with the European upper class. To learn more about Bohemian garnets, read our blog post here:

The ring is in very good vintage condition with minor signs of wear. The garnets are in very good condition, none are cracked or chipped, but some have tiny nicks on the facet junctions under magnification. The garnets do not wiggle and are secure in the mounting. The shank is stamped with 900 (90% silver), a hare’s head 3 (Czech silver mark), and G2 (Granat maker’s mark), which authenticates the genuine Bohemian garnet made in Czechoslovakia. The gold wash’s surface shows fine lines and marks typical of vintage jewelry with a larger area of wear on the inside of the band. A GIA Graduate Gemologist tested the stones.

The ring is a size 7.25 and cannot be sized. The ring measures 1-1/8″ wide and weighs 5.51 grams. The box is for display only.
