Description
Mid-Century Old European & Old Mine Cut Diamond Ring in 18k White Gold
• Metal – 18k white gold, 6.6g
• Center Diamond – Approx. 0.84ct old European cut, J color, SI2 clarity
• Accent Diamonds – Approx. 1.68ctw old mine–cut diamonds, H average color, SI1 average clarity (some better, some lower)
• Total Diamond Weight – Approx. 2.52 carats
• Measurements – Top spans approx. 13.6mm across
• Ring Size – 7 (resizeable)
• Condition – Very good vintage condition with crisp pavé work and strong presence
This ring is a wonderfully expressive example of early Mid-Century design, crafted in the post-war period when jewelers were returning to luxurious white gold after the restrictions of the 1940s. The mounting is sculptural and dimensional, built with the dramatic, sweeping “spray” and leaf-like elements that defined late 1940s–1950s cocktail rings. The triple-split shank, layered pavé, and seamless transitions between the elements all point to a skilled bench jeweler working in a boutique or custom workshop rather than mass production.
The center stone is an old European cut diamond—bright, lively, and full of the broad flashes that characterize 19th–early 20th century cutting. Surrounding it are old mine-cut diamonds that were likely repurposed from an earlier antique piece (19th century), a very common practice in the late 1940s and 1950s when families brought inherited stones to jewelers to create modern, glamorous designs. The contrast of antique diamonds in a Mid-Century sculptural mounting gives the ring both history and distinctive personality.
This is a substantial, eye-catching statement ring with over 2.50 carats of antique diamonds, bold curves, and excellent finger coverage. A beautiful choice for collectors of sculptural Mid-Century jewelry or anyone who appreciates the blend of old-world diamond character with mid-century craftsmanship.
