Antique 14K & Sugarloaf Cabochon Emerald Ring

A sugarloaf cabochon gemstone gets its name from the distinct rounded shape that slopes upward from a flat base, resembling the shape refined sugar was formed into up until the late nineteenth century. These parcels were called sugar loaves, hence the name. Rarely seen in modern jewelry production, it is a favorite among Victorian jewel collectors. Crafted in 14 karat yellow gold with a simple, elegant shank, the bright green emerald sugarloaf cabochon gleams from its perch like a glorious green gum drop! Delightful, delectable and sure to become your favorite as soon as you put it on your hand!
