Exquisite size 5.75 antique platinum ring covered with hand engraving and milgrain with a 5.8mm round rose cut diamond (approx .55ct) and four tiny brilliant cut side stones.
The diamond is beautiful- very clear, white and bright. It is eye clean, and has no damage, only minor bearding on the girdle. It is mesmerizing- it is like looking into a pool of colored light. it picks up all the colors around you and has giant rolling pastel blocks of light for facets.
I bought this ring last year from Jewels by Erica Grace, then had my jeweler replace the four side stones (they were super dark and completely opaque- not very nice) with tiny bright G/VS stones, and cover the ring with hand engraving and mil grain. The engraving goes all around the shank, but my jeweler says the ring can be sized by an experienced jeweler.
The stone is not certified, but David Atlas looked at it and did a Qualitative Pre- Sale Report for JBEG before I bought it.
From the D. Atlas and Co. Inc. Qualitative Pre-Sale Report:
“Antique platinum solitaire ring. 2.2dwt, 4mm shank at shoulder tapers to 1.7mm at base. Top is 8.8mm wide. 6 prong illusion style setting with bead set sidetones. 1 high dome, modern rose cut diamond 5.8x 1.7mm, est 0.55ct, H/I Si1, GIA.”
The illusion setting gives the center stone a really big look- almost 9mm! I am in love with this ring, but sadly do not wear it very often. It is a little too fancy for my everyday jeans and t-shirt style and it makes me sad to see it sitting in the jewelry box, so I am hoping to find it a new home where it will see the light of day! Sorry, I am not interested in trades at this time.
