Champagne for breakfast? That's a good idea for a special occasion. The festive colour of this ring matches the sparkling drink - and is also the perfect companion for a special occasion. The platinum ring consists of a simple band that widens upwards into three arms. These set a large, slightly oval-cut old Mine cut diamond. The diamond, weighing around 3.45 ct, sparkles in a light champagne colour. Inside, it bears small inclusions of graphite, mirrored many times over and as evidence of its formation in the womb of the earth hundreds of millions of years ago. They can be seen clearly with a magnifying glass, but are difficult to make out with the naked eye, but distinguish the stone as an individual: No other diamond is like this one. The elegant, yet not too delicate shape of the rail and the use of diamond roses on the arms of the setting as additional highlights allow us to date the ring to c. 1910. Jewellery made entirely of platinum was rare at the time and reserved for particularly high-quality pieces. Due to its slightly oval cut, the diamond may be a generation older than the ring. It would then have been used here for a second purpose. In more recent times, the diamond was re-polished; the girdle was also faceted on this occasion, a technique not yet encountered in the early 20th century. The diamond has been appraised by an independent gemstone laboratory. The corresponding appraisal is enclosed with the ring. The ring is in first-class condition and is a unique piece of jewellery. It came to us here in Berlin.
