Designed in the classic Spanish Mudéjar style, this original design by Marcial de Gomar features a 1.38 carat fine quality round cut Colombian emerald originally cut from a 3.40 carat rough crystal recovered by divers from the sunken Atocha galleon. It is crafted in 22 karat gold in the cire perdue method. From anecdotal revelations of family history relating to his Spanish background, Marcial became familiar with the art and design of Spain during its period of Islamic rule of some seven hundred years. The contributions resulting from this fusion of Christian and Islamic art known as Mudéjar have largely gone unrecognized. Since both gold and emeralds from Colombia filled the treasure coffers of Spanish Kings, Marcial wished to restore in some measure this unique and beautiful style, incorporating both those elements into this unduplicated and exceptionally singular ring.
