The singular allure of the Pomellato cabochon
The House of Pomellato has been revolutionising the wearing of coloured gems since its foundation in Milan, favouring straightforward volumes and bold stacking. The M'ama non M'ama collection perfectly embodies this refined vision. This second-hand jewellery showcases a natural adularia, commonly known as moonstone, cut into a round cabochon with an estimated volume of 1.30 carats. The total absence of facets maximises the adularescence of the stone, a specific optical phenomenon that creates bluish reflections beneath the surface. The fluid 18-carat pink gold setting supports this gem with confidence. Reference C170009314 is discreetly integrated into the documented history of this creation.
Architecture and jewellery expertise
The architecture of this setting is based on a controlled tension setting. The smooth gold ring pinches the stone on its sides and completely eliminates the need for classic prongs. This technique frees the poles of the adularia to allow light to penetrate the material unhindered. The round section of the shoulder ensures absolute comfort when worn, while maintaining the structural rigidity needed to secure the 1.30 carat cabochon. The mirror polish applied throughout highlights the organic curvature of the rose gold.
Why this second-hand ring
Acquiring a signed Milanese creation on the second-hand market represents a decidedly savvy move. Current production costs and the level of finishing required by the major jewellery manufacturers make these pieces particularly attractive. The sheer volume offered by this concentrated gem combined with the technical quality of the setting illustrate the relevance of such a choice for a lover of rigorous design.
