Carrera y Carrera 18K White Gold & 0.10ct VVS2-VS1/F-G Diamond Panther Ring in Red Velvet Cartier Pouch - This beautiful piece was finely crafted by Carrera y Carrera, of solid 18k white gold. The ring is in the form of a panther, and is finished with a 0.10ct (approximate) genuine VVS2-VS1/F-G round cut diamond accent. The panther has a half satin, half polished finish, adding a lovely dimension to the piece. The ring is signed with the Carrera y Carrera hallmark, gold purity, and unique serial number. Carrera y Carrera is an icon of gold craftsmanship and jewelry artisanship, and creates each piece in its workshops as if it were a small work of art. Each piece is meticulously crafted, in a series of labor intensive steps. The piece is first sketched by the designer, and is then sculpted by the hands of expert modelers, from a block of hard wax, and then the master prototype is created in silver once it has reached the optimal design. The piece is then transformed into gold using the traditional lost wax casting method, and is then finished by master jewelers who painstakingly choose the gems and set them into the piece. The final touch, and Carrera y Carrera's trademark, is the matte-gloss finish, which allows a greater appreciation of the details of these small sculptures. Carrera y Carrera has a long history of celebrity clientele, including Jennifer Lopez, Madonna, Olivia Wilde, and many others. This piece is in excellent condition, and looks as though it has hardly been worn. The ring measures 10mm wide (at the widest point). Ring size: 9 (can be sized). The ring will come housed in a red velvet Cartier storage pouch. (WEIGHT: 4.8 grams)
