Among all precious stones, among all the treasures of nature, one stone in particular stands out. The diamond has always been the king of all jewels, the epitome of precious jewelry. Its fire, its brilliance, but also its pure white color make it the most sought-after gemstone: this ring from our workshop is made to optimally present a selected, large diamond. In our daily work with antique jewelry, we have seen numerous wonderful diamond rings. Many put their gemstones in a seductive light and pleased us with their design or shape. However, for those customers who prefer to find a new, previously unworn ring, we have combined all of these qualities into one piece: This ring is the essence - we think - of elegant form and the best materials, and perhaps the most beautiful way to wear a diamond. The ring widens in its construction in several stepped stages. Smaller diamonds pave the way from the ring band until, held by four flat lobes, the large diamond in the center of the ring shines. Set in high karat yellow gold is an antique, slightly cushion-shaped old mine cut diamond that was cut as early as the second half of the 19th century. As a radiant focal point, it comes to us spectacularly in lightly toned white and small inclusions that make it one of a kind. The design of the ring is based on the forms of the Art Deco of the twenties. The basis is an elegant geometry of squares and circles, which are intertwined and staggered to compose the ring and its face. With this design, we want to recall the Berlin of the 1920s, when the city was the metropolis of film, theater and numerous revues, shining in the spotlight of its stages. The side view of the ring reveals fine engravings that enliven the surfaces in gentle relief. Due to its design, the ring allows plenty of light to reach the diamonds to make them sparkle optimally. At the same time, it is designed flat and even the large diamond stays close to the finger, making the ring comfortable to wear. We can make the ring in platinum, white gold, yellow gold and rose gold and always present individual diamonds in it from old stock. Therefore, each of these rings is an individual one-of-a-kind piece that does not exist exactly the same way a second time.

A ring with a single, large diamond is today considered the classic engagement ring. Here, the precious (and, according to legend, indestructible) stone stands for eternity - which is thus intended to underline the duration of the promise made with it. Significant for this connection was the New York jeweler Charles Lewis Tiffany. Tiffany first sold such rings through his mail-order catalog in 1886 and specifically advertised them as gifts for engagement. In fact, however, the tradition of understanding a diamond ring as a symbolic piece of jewelry is far older. As early as 1477, it is recorded, Duchess Mary of Burgundy received a diamond ring as a promise of fidelity from her future husband Maximilian of Habsburg. Another interesting chapter on this subject can still be traced today in the art city of Florence. Here Piero de' Medici chose the diamond ring as his personal emblem, as his imprese. The son of Cosimo and father of Lorenzo il Magnifico had this ring, adorned with a few diamonds around a banner with the inscription "SEMPER", meaning "always", placed on all the buildings for which he was responsible, but also on everyday objects. Families linked to the Medici, such as the Rucellai, adopted this sign: We still see it today on the facade of their city palazzo. So even in the Medici times, the diamond ring was a sign of eternity.
