To find out more about the gemstones in this ring:
Provenance
Original to 1985, this vintage solitaire ring has such elegant and understated proportions. Set with a natural round brilliant-cut diamond with a bright colour and lively appearance, claw-set in an open-back setting - the claws have square shaped outlines which actually gives the diamond a slightly larger appearance. This refined detail makes the diamond look as though perfectly in flush with the band when seen from the top-down - we love this unusual feature!
