This vintage platinum engagement ring is diamond mounted and weighs 4.1g measuring 9mm wide and 6.5mm deep. Designed with simplicity and classical elegance, this vintage 1930's engagement ring exposes a significant, highly refractive 0.55ct round brilliant-cut diamond graded 'fancy-yellow'(L) color and VS1 clarity. Secured by gracefully elongated multiple prongs, the sparkling center-stone is mounted within a quintessentially vintage 1930's pierced openwork setting, embraced by meticulously designed 'epaulette' shoulders. The latter are adorned with 0.08cts of single-cut diamonds graded I color and SI clarity range, surmounting an asymmetrically themed openwork gallery. The majestically arched, subtly shielded, angular shoulders taper gracefully to merge into a sleek and spherical platinum band and an easily sizable shank.

Since its discovery, platinum has been used to a great extent for the purpose of mounting jewels or the ‘stars of heaven’, as it were, in their ‘heavenly setting’….
