Description
An exceptional and very fine "Old Cut" Diamond Solitaire Engagement ring, beautifully crafted in the 1930s.
This English Masterpiece features a stunning Central Diamond weighing 1.60cts assessed as I colour and VS clarity.The central gemstone is elegantly held in a six raised claw set design within a Platinum band, which bears clear marks to the inside of the shank. This piece perfectly captures the timeless elegance of the Art Deco era, making it an extraordinary choice for a discerning collector or a truly unique proposal.
The shoulders of this Classic "Art Deco" Engagement Ring showcase a remarkably clever design element. The central Diamond is flanked on either side by two collet-set "Old French Cut" Diamonds, totalling 0.22 Carats with a G - H Colour and VS Clarity. These four unique side stones are generally much deeper than the average Baguette Cut Diamond, a feature that affords greater light refraction through-out the piece and gives the ring an enchanting, lively sparkle from every angle.
This beautiful ring is accompanied by an Independent Gemmologist's Report con-firming the above assessment, offering complete peace of mind for its next custodian. Based in the heart of London, our boutique specializes in sourcing the finest antique and vintage jewellery, and this rare Art Deco treasure stands out as a magnificent testament to the superior craftsmanship of the early 20th century.
