Great Design and bright, beautiful diamonds are featured in this Art Deco ring....here are the stats:
- 18K white gold
- 23 diamonds: 3 step cut square (or almost square diamonds, 2 European cut diamonds, 18 old single cut diamonds (total estimated to be approximately .50 carat, or so)
.
- step cut diamonds measure approximately 2.8 mm x 2.6 to 2.8 mm. (The bezel setting makes it a little challenging to get very precise measurements.) Very white and clean, I would judge their color to be in the F-G-H range of colorless to near-colorless and they are both clean to the naked eye and beautiful under magnification. All three are in very good condition with no damage that I can discern. Two of the three stones have open culets.
- Two European cut diamonds set into their own triangular shaped settings, each measuring approximately 1.8 to 2 mm in diameter. Extremely fiery with lovely old cuts and open culets, I would judge their color to be in the G-H range of near-colorless and they are also clean to the naked eye, as well as under magnification. I see no chips, nicks or scratches - they are both in great original condition.
- The single cut diamonds create the "v" shaped border, with each diamond approximately 1 to 1.3 mm in diameter (the diamonds at the apex of the "V" are slightly larger than the other small diamonds) Bright and sparkly, I would judge their color to be in the G-H range of near-colorless...again, clean to the naked eye, as well as very nicely clean under magnification, and without damage
- The face of the ring measures approximately 9.3 x 15.5 mm and has a rise off the finger of approximately 4 mm at it's highest point. I see one tiny imperfection on the underside of the bridge that I think could use a touch up with a laser, so I will have my bench jeweler take care of that before shipping the ring to it's new home.
- At some time in it's past this ring has had a new band added to it which was done very nicely. It was also sized at some point and not done quite as nicely as I like to see - so, there is a little thinning and unevenness at the very back of the band. There is an old partially obscured mark of "18 ct" on the inside of the band. The total weight of the ring is 2.25 grams.
- Currently size 4.75 , this ring could be sized within reason by a good jeweler. If it is sized up, especially more than just slightly, I would expect more gold to be added at the back of the band, perhaps a partial shank, at your jeweler's discretion. .
Very lovely on the hand!
