As antique jewellery dealers, our love of antique objects means that we occasionally buy unmounted gemstones, as each historical diamond is a unique piece with its own character. However, the search for beautiful settings for our historical diamonds turned out to be more difficult than expected. Modern settings, as you can buy them in stores, are often soulless machine products with no feeling for form and proportion. But beautiful antique settings rarely come to us without matching diamonds. So we commissioned our goldsmith to make a ring setting according to our design, which we then had cast using an old technique. We had this ring made from fine platinum and had an unusual antique diamond set in it, which came to us unset as part of a collection of antique diamonds: it is a 0.86 ct, slightly yellow tinted diamond with an intense inclusion pattern, a so-called "salt n' pepper" diamond. The diamond is cut in the so-called transitional cut of the 1920s, a cut form between the old cut and the modern brilliant cut. This dating is supported by the proportions of the stone and the large calette at the lower end. However, the diamond has been reworked in more recent times: The calette and also the girdle have been polished, which is not the case with antique stones. The proportions of the stone were probably improved at some point in the last 30 years and the stone was polished all around. Two smaller diamonds in delicate ornaments with milgrains enliven the ring shoulders and give the piece a light elegance. An independent appraisal has confirmed the quality of the materials.

What is unusual is how many inclusions the stone contains: it is a so-called "Salt n' Pepper" diamond, a unique specimen that not only stands for the eternity of love, but also for individual love - because there is no other stone like it in the world.
