From the first glance, it’s clear that this Art Deco platinum engagement ring from 1920 emanates nobility. In resemblance of the Lady Di ring, the deep blue of a natural oval cut sapphire springs from between 18 surrounding old European cut diamonds set in petal shapes. A second layer of 18 leaflets pops up from behind the diamond flower in the form of triangular cut sapphires, which gives this jewel the appearance of completion.
Looking at the meticulously pierced base, this ring is truly created to make a princess bloom like a bluebottle in early summer.

Country of origin: France
Style: Art Deco
Style specifics: Abstract motives and geometrical forms are quite typical for the Art Deco period. Art Deco moved away from the soft pastels and organic forms of its style predecessor, Art Nouveau, and embraced influences from many different styles and movements of the early 20th century, including Neoclassical, Constructivism, Cubism, Modernism, and Futurism. Its popularity peaked in Europe during the Roaring Twenties and continued strongly in the United States through the 1930s. Although many design movements have political or philosophical roots or intentions, Art Deco was purely decorative.
Period: ca. 1920
Material: platinum
Diamond(s): 18 old European cut diamonds with an estimated weight of ± 1.08ct. (colour and clarity: F/I, vs/i).
– All diamond weights, color grades and clarity are approximate since the stones were not removed from their mounts to preserve the integrity of the setting.
– Total diamond weight: approx. 1.08 crt.
Precious stones: One natural sapphire with an estimated weight of ± 6.20ct., deep dark blue
Treatment: most probably heat treated, natural sapphires are commonly enhanced by a thermal process. This is an accepted technique as long as it is mentioned by the seller.
18 triangle cut sapphire . We did not check if the sapphire is lab produced or not as this information has no influence on the value of this jewel. Natural sapphires and lab produced sapphires were both used in this era, rather more for their effect than for their intrinsic value.
Birthstones: Diamond is the birthstone (or month stone) for April and sapphire for September.
Hallmarks: The French control mark for platinum representing a dog's head that was in use in France from about 1912.
