1 CARAT OLD EUROPEAN CUT DIAMOND VINTAGE ENGAGEMENT RING RUBY PLATINUM ART DECO

This dazzling and high quality ring brings to life the glamour and artistry of the illustrious Art Deco era! The ring is handmade and a beautiful display of masterful craftsmanship and precise detailing. The center is a bright white and eye clean 1.01ct old European cut diamond.Cut by hand during the Art Deco era of the 1920s to 1930s, the 1 carat center diamond has wide facets that return bold sparkle and radiate old world charm! It is surrounded by a rich red halo of rare French cut natural rubies and set in a timelessly elegant platinum setting with a filigree undergallery. The platinum setting is masterfully crafted using antique methods. This ring is the best of both worlds as it offers the look and artisanal craft of a 1920s ring without the hundred years of wear and tear. This beauty is an excellent choice for an engagement or right hand ring that is not only beautifully designed and eye-catching, but also fully unique and meticulously crafted by hand.

Graded F for color, the 1.01ct diamond is bright white and colorless. It is just a couple very subtle shades away from perfect D color! Diamonds from this time period tend to show a touch of color, so it is rare to find a bright white old cut such as this one! The diamond is graded SI2 for clarity, and it is eye clean. The inclusions are small and well dispersed throughout the diamond. There are no heavy or large inclusions. They blend perfectly into the sparkle and hide extremely well even under very close scrutiny. The accent diamonds are bright white and completely eye clean, graded F-G for color and VS2-SI2 for clarity. The rubies are a rich and brightly saturated red. These are very high quality rubies with a geographic origin of Myanmar (Burma). They are cut and set with exceptional craftsmanship. Each ruby is individually cut to fit in the setting with zero gaps. This is a highly skilled and labor intensive process that truly makes this setting a work of art! The rubies are French cut, which is quite rare to see today as they take an incredible amount of labor to cut. The benefit is that French cuts reflect more light and therefore appear very lively as the light bounces off the extra facets. The diamonds and rubies are all natural, earth-mined stones. The setting is solid platinum and is intricately detailed and finished by hand. The workmanship on this ring is phenomenal, truly a testament to the mastery of its artisan! The ring measures 10.1mm across (north south) and 5.6mm from finger to top.

Eye catching and timelessly glamorous, this stunning ring would make a beautiful and enduring engagement or right hand ring. Carefully crafted by hand, this diamond ring is a truly unique work of art!
