Vintage 8.62 Carat European-Cut Diamond Solitaire Ring - GIA G SI2
10-3-11995
ABOUT THIS RING
Polarized sunglasses are recommended when viewing this vintage sizzler up close! Weighing in at 8.62 carats, this icy-white European-cut diamond* dates back to the early-20th century and bears a GIA Diamond Grading Report stating: G color - SI2 clarity. The impressive ultra-sparkler beams brilliantly from within a classic Art Deco solitaire mounting, hand fabricated and hand engraved in platinum and modestly embellished with small single-cut diamonds on the shoulders. The diamond is seated in an elegantly stylized setting which has the added advantage of seemingly enhancing the dimension of the already amply-sized stone. Currently ring size 5 1/2. *The beauty of antique and vintage diamonds, compared to their modern counterparts, are the individual characteristics which distinguish each and every stone. Rather than strictly adhering to cookie-cutter formulas, the diamond cutters of yesteryear viewed each rough diamond as an ancient Greek or Roman sculptor viewed a rough piece of marble and proceeded to fashion it according to the dictates of nature, and his own artistic impulses, to create the most beautiful and valuable stone possible.
