Over the past few years, we have repeatedly found individual, unmounted diamonds. Often as part of old pieces of jewellery that were no longer wearable, but occasionally also already set in the course of a larger collection of gemstones. For a long time we didn't really know how to make these precious stones wearable again, because we didn't really like most of the modern settings and so the antique stones were waiting for a new use. After a long search we found a manufactory in the USA, which produces ring settings made of white gold according to historical models. This ring also comes from there. Its basic shape is a narrow, elegant band that is placed around the finger. Delicate bars that distinguish the ring, especially in the side sections, look like textile lace and form small shell ornaments on the sides. Our gem setter has now set an antique diamond of 0.38 carats in this setting. The diamond is designed in the old European cut, an early form of the brilliant cut and predecessor of today's full cut. It sparkles in a fine white and shows only a few inclusions under the magnifying glass, which make it unmistakable - but do not disturb its brilliance. We have had a diamond certificate prepared for the diamond, which is delivered together with the ring.

The symbolic act of giving a diamond ring as an engagement gift is first documented in 1477 and can be traced back to Mary of Burgundy, who received a diamond ring as a promise of fidelity from her future husband, Archduke Maximilian of Habsburg. Wearing a ring as a sign of commitment on the left hand, on the other hand, was already the custom of the ancient Egyptians, who believed that the "love vein" connected the heart to the left ring finger.
