Description

A wonderful Art Deco ring, Circa 1930s, consisting of five old mined hand cut sparkling Diamonds that are graduated slightly, which means the Diamonds progressively change in size, this is a long-established technique but never fails to be effective.


Early diamond cutters (today known as bruters) shaped old mine cut Diamonds by following the octahedral shape of the diamond crystal, laboriously grinding two Diamonds together to achieve the desired shape, and a diamond polisher then polished the facets.

Due to the shape of the rough and because the Diamonds were hand crafted, dimensions varied from stone to stone.

This made every old mine cut Diamond unique, or put poetically, have its own personality.

Old cut Diamonds are not cut with the same precision as modern stones giving them real individuality and personality.

Finely handcrafted in 18 carat Gold with trumpet detailing to the shoulders leading to a plain band shank.

The shank is substantial, yet extremely comfortable to wear.

The overall finish of the ring is wonderful. Everything is smooth to the touch.

The ring sits low and gently curves over the finger.

Steeped in English history, a glamorous and elegant piece with a timeless look.

Looks fabulous when worn.
