ABOUT THIS RING

There's nothing like a little colorful background history to add allure to a beautiful jewel. The story goes that the marquise diamond was fist commissioned by Louis XV for his mistress, Madame de Pompadour. Since she was given the title of Marquise in 1745, the cut was named in her honor and popularized her new title. The gorgeous and beautifully cut vintage marquise diamond (circa early-20th-century), weighing 1.69 carats, in this stunning ring sparkles brightly from a scintillating surround of shimmering round brilliant-cut diamonds, while trios of round brilliants add shine to the shoulders of the contrasting yellow gold shank. The mounting is mid-20th-century vintage. Total diamond weight, 2.60 carats. Center diamond accompanied by a GIA Grading Report stating: I color - VS1 clarity. A dynamic dazzler! Hand fabricated in platinum and 18K gold, currently ring size 5 3/4.

How to Pair Your Wedding Band

You found your ideal, beautiful, one-of-a-kind antique or vintage engagement ring… and then realized that you need a wedding band to go with it. Pairing the two can be tricky, since vintage engagement rings rarely come with matching bands, and many modern bands don’t accommodate vintage shapes and designs. So we created a line of vintage-style wedding bands, modeled after original pieces from our collection.

About Estate Jewelry

Though it calls to mind grand manor houses in the English countryside, “estate” is just a fancy way of describing any piece of jewelry with a previous owner. That’s pretty much everything in our collection. We tend to use “estate” to refer to pieces in our collection with a more modern or contemporary design, or vintage-inspired designs. These perennial gems are selected in harmony with our original antique and vintage pieces…they’re just a little bit younger!

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.
