ABOUT THIS RING

Commissioned by King Louis XV to resemble the perfect curves of his mistress's lips, the elegant marquise diamond--elliptical with pointed ends--is still a favored choice for those who desire a diamond that's just a step away from the conventional geometric-shaped stones. Adding to its allure, this one, weighing 1.15 carats, has an enchanting champagne hue--with an effervescence to match--and is surrounded by 16 scintillating single and old mine cut diamonds, all of which crown a bright 14K gold shank with gently tapered shoulders. Millegrain edging adds the finishing detail to this Edwardian beauty (marquise center diamond is later). Total diamond weight, 1.85 carats. Hand fabricated in silver over 14K gold (diamond settings) and 14K yellow gold.

About Victorian Jewelry

The eclectic Victorians didn’t limit themselves when it came to motifs and themes—if it struck their fancy, they turned it into jewelry. Sweet and sentimental with a distinct romantic streak, Victorian gems expanded upon their Georgian predecessors. The array of styles that blossomed (sometimes quite literally) during this era endure to this day.

Jewelry Care

As with anything of value, especially sentimental value, taking good care of your vintage and antique jewelry from Lang will enhance its beauty and extend its lifespan. We encourage you to have your jewelry checked and cleaned by us or by your trusted local jeweler every six months, to ensure that each piece is in good wearable condition with all gemstones in place. It’s not uncommon for stones to loosen over time, and it’s much easier to tighten a loose stone than to replace a lost one! As stated in our Repair Policy, we strongly recommend that you allow us to perform any repairs, since our jewelers are specialists in restoring vintage and antique jewelry.
