Description

An early 20th century fancy light purplish pink diamond ring, the modified pear brilliant-cut diamond weighing 1.41 carats and accompanied by GIA report stating to be of natural fancy light purplish pink colour and VVS2 clarity, set within two old-cut colourless diamonds with a combined weight of 0.42 carats for the pair and an old-cut yellow colour diamond weighing 0.23 carats, with diamond-set curved shoulders, all mounted in platinum and rose gold, with tapering ridged shank, circa 1900, measuring 1.6 x 1.9cm, finger size N, gross weight 3.7 grams.

An exceptional Belle Epoque ring. The centrepiece of this exquisite ring is a dazzling fancy pink diamond in the shape of a kite. This diamond sits elegantly between curved diamond set shoulders and above a trio of further diamonds, two white and one yellow. The multicoloured combination of fancy diamonds is gorgeous, and the stones are perfectly complemented by the yellow gold setting and band. The feminine and delicate style of this ring is typical of the period, but the addition of fancy colour diamonds makes this piece a true treasure. This piece would make a sublime engagement ring.
