Vintage White Gold Ring With Sapphire & Diamonds, ca. 1975

One dark blue oval star cut sapphire weighing approximately 3.30 carats appears as the center of a double frame of diamonds. Set in two planes below the sapphire are twelve brilliant-cut diamonds and an equal number of baguette-cut diamonds, with the angular diamonds set slightly offset. They expand the radiance of the ring and add an unusual design element. A total of 1.74ct of fine diamonds are worked. This creates a special, crystalline effect just from the colours of the precious gemstones. The laterally flared ring rail with its basket-like galiery undercrossing of the ring head also makes the side view of the ring worth seeing. Based on its high structure and the design elements described above, we date the ring to around 1970. Handcrafted to perfection, the piece charms as it did the day it was made - and is ready to wear! The elegant ring found its way to us from Hamburg and comes with a detailed appraisal from the German Association for Gemstone Evaluation.
