This European-cut diamond engagement ring in Art Deco style is crafted in platinum and 18k yellow gold, weighs 2.4g and measures 10mm wide and 5mm deep. Characterizing the distinct elegance and contrasting aesthetic of the Art Deco jewelry style, this alluring engagement ring exposes a highly reflective bezel-set 0.56ct European-cut diamond graded M color and SI1 clarity mounted in a gracefully elevated position within a finely mille grained platinum-topped setting. This alluring center-stone is surrounded by a concentric border of well matched and well-cut channel-set French square-cut rubies graded an enchanting 'Fuchsia' color and 'good' clarity. This color-contrasted assemblage of precious stones superimposes an elaborately pierced two-tone gallery embellished with delicate honeycomb-motif openwork silhouettes. Gracefully shielded and delicately chased platinum-topped shoulders are adorned with 0.06cts of bead-set full-cut piqué diamonds graded L-M color, enhanced by finely mille grained contours. A spherical yellow gold band and an easily sizable shank complement this charismatic and timelessly elegant engagement ring.

Ruby is considered one of the most valuable gemstones on earth and possesses all the pre-requisites for being a precious stone: a wonderful color emanating warmth, excellent hardness, and overwhelming brilliance. India has for centuries been known as the original country in which rubies were mined, and Indian literature regarding this gemstone is saturated with knowledge inherited throughout generations. In the Sanskrit language, ruby is called 'ratnaraj' which translates as 'King of Gemstones' and indeed rubies continue to decorate the insignia of many royal houses in various parts of the world. A red variety of the corundum mineral, ruby consists of aluminum oxide and chrome as well as minor proportions of other trace elements. In fine quality, this gemstone is mined only rarely all over the world and responsible for this scarcity is the color-creating element chrome. The journey to the most important ruby occurrences of the world would lead us to Burma, where the most luxurious category of ruby is mined bordering the neighboring country of Viet Nam where rubies display a slightly purplish hue. Ruby is also mined in Thailand, Ceylon, Northern Pakistan in the Hunza Valley or in Cashmere, Tadzhikistan and Afghanistan.
