Antique French Old Mine Cut Diamond, Platinum and 18k Yellow Gold Plaque Ring
Antique French Old Mine Cut Diamond, Platinum and 18k Yellow Gold Plaque Ring
A truly spectacular antique diamond ring that consists of an 18k yellow gold shank/band, a rectangular platinum setting, and 35 insane old mine cut diamonds. These old mine cuts are extra chunky and extra gorgeous; the larger stones are set in three columns of seven diamonds each, with one diamond on each shoulder and 12 smaller diamonds inset between the larger stones. The platinum and 18k yellow gold give this ring a cool two-tone look, and the design is surprisingly modern for an antique piece- the condition is absolutely incredible as well. All the diamonds have open backs, and the estimated total carat weight is approximately 5+ carats. The diamonds grade as G - I color and SI - I clarity.
This ring is an easily sizable 8.75, weighs 9 grams, has a 3 mm band, and its face measures 28.4 x 13.1 mm. The large face extends almost to the wearer's knuckle, making it a perfect statement piece.
