As antique jewelry dealers, our love for antique objects leads us to occasionally purchase unmounted gemstones as well, because every historic diamond is a one-of-a-kind piece with its own unique character. However, the search for beautiful settings for our historic diamonds proved more difficult than we had anticipated. Modern settings, such as those available in stores, are often soulless, mass-produced items lacking any sense of form and proportion. Yet beautiful antique settings rarely come to us without matching diamonds. So we commissioned our goldsmith to craft a ring setting based on our design, which we then had cast using traditional techniques. We had this ring made from fine platinum and set with an unusual diamond that came to us unmounted as part of a collection of antique diamonds: It is a 0.77 ct, slightly yellow-tinted diamond with an intense pattern of inclusions—a so-called “salt-and-pepper” diamond. The diamond is cut in the so-called transitional cut of the 1920s, a style that bridges the round diamond and the modern brilliant cut. The stone’s proportions and the large calette at the bottom support this dating. However, the diamond has been reworked at some point in recent times: both the calette and the girdle have been polished, which is not typical for antique stones. Presumably, sometime in the last 30 years, the stone’s proportions were improved and the stone was polished all around. Two smaller diamonds set in delicate milgrains enliven the ring shoulders and lend the piece a subtle elegance. An independent appraisal has confirmed the quality of the materials.
