Description

This is a really unusual piece. Circa 1925 we purchased this from a lady who had inherited it from her aunt. Apparently her aunt had worn the ring frequently, which was immediately evident in the thin shank. The lady understood the ring required some restoration work but as she wore it only very occassionally she decided to sell.

Since then, we have checked the setting thoroughly and have had to replace the old 18 Carat Gold shank with a new one. The setting and the shoulders have remained completely original, and the ring is now in excellent condition.

The unique hexagonal setting features four main Old Brilliant Cut Diamonds and four smaller diamonds set into the corners. It is believed to be Platinum and is decorated with millegrain (which is an expensive process and only used on high quality items) with smaller millegrain edging.

The setting is typically flat and sits flush to the finger, however the plaque is raised slightly on a small gallery to allow light to pass through the diamonds. The total diamond weight is approximately 0.75 Carats and the diamonds are beautifully white and clear.

It is a UK size L, US approx 5.5

Price: £825.00 (approx $1,300.00 USD)
