ABOUT THIS RING

Dating from the 1940s, when platinum was required as a strategist metal for the war effort, this late-Art Deco dazzler is die-struck and hand finished in palladium - platinum's look alike and more peaceful cousin. Starring a bright-white and shining transitional European-cut diamond, weighing .58 carat, the scintillating stone is set in a raised box setting embellished all around by small single-cut diamonds with diamond-set pentagonal shoulders leading to a sleek knife-edge ring shank. The ring was produced by Loretz & Benoit, a prominent upstairs jeweler to San Francisco's mid-century carriage. Currently ring size 6 3/4.

About Art Deco Jewelry

Sleek and modern, Art Deco design brought jewelry into the machine age. Yet these stylish pieces still found room for the fine forms and lines of previous eras within their elegant architecture. In particular, we see many peaceful co-habitations of Edwardian and Art Deco styles together.

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.
