Description

A mint condition original Art Deco handmade platinum ruby and diamond ring circa 1930s set with exceptional vivid red earth mined rubies and exceptional white earth mined diamonds. This sparkling couture hand crafted ring is an original piece from the art deco era and not a reproduction. I have never seen another similar antique diamond ring to this. I love the unique interpretation of the romantic sentiment of yesterday today and tomorrow to symbolise eternal love. The gorgeous ruby accents which are vivid red just took my breath away. They give this beautiful art deco diamond ring an elegance and femininity which just shines when you look at this piece. It almost has a floral look to it- it's exuberant and happy. The selection of diamonds is wonderful they are each perfectly matched for color and are excellent cut. Being old european cut diamonds they are exponentially more fiery than modern ideal round brilliant cut diamonds you see dispersion everywhere and the scintillation is divine. In total there are 2.02 carats of VS1/SI1 clarity I/J/K color diamonds which measure respectively 0.57 carats, 0.50 carats, 0.36 carats, 0.26 carats, 0.25 carats and 0.08 carats. These stones have excellent cuts and stunning polish. Just the pretty vivid natural red earth mined unheated ruby accents alone weigh 0.28 carats. Once again the attention to detail just shines as each gorgeous gem ruby has been hand selected to match the others for perfect red color and exceptional loupe clean clarity. Often in the art deco era synthetic rubies were used in fine jewelry to achieve this sort of color match as it is so rare to find rubies which perfectly match in this astonishing red. Not so with this divine art deco platinum engagement ring every ruby accent is a natural gem. The total ruby and diamond weight 2.30 carats. Currently this heirloom antique old european cut diamond ring is a size 7 1/4 US sizing. It can be resized 1 1/2 American sizes either way with ease. This beautiful 1930s engagement ring could not be replaced with a similar item on the market today. It is a one of a kind handmade piece from the era set with the most perfectly cut exquisite quality gems all of which are unheated. There would be few jewelers left today who could make a ring like this by hand in solid platinum. Full appraisal documents shall accompany this glorious antique ring. It will be sent in a fine ring presentation box ready for gifting and for safe keeping forever. This ring is one of my two favorite engagement rings we have in stock at the moment. It just shines in it's uniqueness and quality. I have never seen another like it.
